Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier 90's Two-Channel
When the Dual Rectifier Solo Head arrived in 1992, it set a new standard for high-gain heavy guitar. It brought a new voice: a scooped midrange, an ominous low end, and a ripping, harmonic-rich top end, all woven into a mighty wall of tube gain. Its feel was as empowering as its sound, making it easier to play with proficiency and endlessly inspiring, rewarding, and addictive.
Its impact on the generation that used it to define the sound of rock was sweeping and lasting. It has become one of the most recorded and imitated tube amps ever, and arguably the most modeled in today’s digital amp world.
The Foundation of a Generation’s Sound
The Recto’s layered gain and huge low end anchored radio-worthy songs driven by massive crunch rhythms and searing lead or octave hooks. Its tuning options made it the go-to for anyone needing maximum width and girth in a three-piece band, and its aggressive looks provided the perfect backdrop.
An Icon, Reborn
The 90s Dual Rectifier is a faithful recreation of the amp that redefined high gain and supplied much of the soundtrack of an era. Welcome upgrades include improved cleans that enhance the amp without distracting from it.
It’s your chance to own an original icon, built by the same artisans who built them 30 years ago, and backed by a new amp warranty. Don’t miss out.
