brad1 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Got a Mesa Mini-Rectifier 25. Mint condition. And I really like it! 2 Channels, all tube, FX Loop, and a few litte switches that do different stuff. Each channel can be set to either 25 or 10 watts individually. Found this one on Reverb for less than half the price of a new one. So of course, I had to get it. Came with a bag/case too. Sounds superb! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Pepper Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I had a Mesa TA-15. Best amp I ever owned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad1 Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 I just downloaded the Owner's Manual. I have never seen such a detailed and user friendly owner's manual in my life; especially for an amp. It pretty much tells you the name of every part on the amp and how to replace it. Lots of helpful and interesting stuff to read in there. And replacing tubes in a Mesa looks to be super easy too. No wonder these things have such a good reputation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Great score. What cabinet are you running it through? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a set up where I run my amp heads into a splitter, with one line going to a 1x12 Bugera cab (Turbosound speaker which sounds great) and the other to a Hughes and Kettner 1x10 with a Celestion Ten 30. Both cabs have quite different sounds and I like switching between both with different guitars and amps.

kidblast Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 my sons band mate had a MB Rec. combo, 2x12 I think it was 100wats that he left as his house. I swear that thing moved his foundation a few feet after I used it a few times. Sucker ROARED. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NighthawkChris Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Really cool amp man congrats! I bought a Fillmore 50 combo a while back and really digging it - like an improved Fender HRD, TBH. So IMHO, Mesa makes some real great amps and hope you enjoy it for many years to come. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle fester Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Oooooh shiny! Word on the street, shiny always sounds better. Enjoy. PS - I think it's wicked cool you got them set up with the splitter for the different sounds... I could annoy a lot of people for long periods of time with a set up like that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad1 Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Thanks everybody for the comments! You know what makes it even cooler. It's lunchbox sized, and it only weighs 12 pounds! So glad I got it. It really is a very nice amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
