Mesa/Boogie '90s Dual Rectifier 100-watt Tube Head - Standard

Few guitar amplifiers have made a more significant impact on heavy guitar tones than Mesa’s original 1990s-era Dual Rectifier Solo head. Indeed, the Dual Rectifier’s sublime melding of aggressive lows, harmonic-rich highs, and meticulously scooped mids redefined what high gain was supposed to sound like. While modern Dual Rectifiers definitely deliver the gut-punching goods, many Recto enthusiasts will tell you there’s something special about the 1990s-era model. This reissued Mesa/Boogie ’90s Dual Rectifier gives Recto aficionados everything they could wish for, including the legendary Orange/Vintage and Modern/Red channels, complete with Channel Cloning. That said, the ’90s Dual Rectifier flaunts a number of modern upgrades, most notably an improved Clean mode. Moreover, in addition to the usual EQ and Gain controls, the ’90s Dual Rectifier includes a Bold/Spongy Power switch, a Rectifier Select switch, and a Bias Switch toggle for custom-tailoring your tone, along with a Slave output and Effects Loop jacks. The Mesa/Boogie ’90s Dual Rectifier enables modern guitarists to wield the ferocious Recto tone that has dominated the high-gain world for the past three decades.
