So I took the Rectifier to practice today. It took me one song to realize that the amp won't work for me. So I switched to the Plexi for the rest of the practice.

After practice, I drove straight to Atomic Music and worked out a trade for......






























That's a much better amp for me than the Rectifier. I had forgotten how awesome the 100w version of this amp sounds. All 3 channels are killer. I also had forgotten how huge this head is
But I'm happy with this amp. I have a gig this coming Sunday and I'll definitely use it. I think I can play my whole set with this amp and a delay through the loop.

Photo isn’t showing but I’m gonna guess….. 100 watt 5153??

lol! You need to just keep this and the DSL and stop fucking around.

Which Rectifier did you have?

This thread is awesome hahaha

Not surprised one bit - in a good way.

I regret getting rid of my OG 5153. I could live on the Blue/2nd channel.

5153 is one of those amps that can do a lot even with how simple the control layout is.

Weird, its just on my phone that pictures aren't showing up


Very nice

I only have the 50 watt but I agree that these amps are more straight forward and instant gratification than a recto. They just sound so good and its hard to dial in a bad sound makes more sense for your style too

Triple Rectifier non multiwatt. Great sounding amp but not for what I am doing.

yeah that's the thing. I don't think this amp is better than the recto per se. It all depends on what you're doing. But it does make a lot more sense for my style.

came here expecting another DSL..... very disappointed..... but...HNAD lol

what didnt work with the recto??
