      My 1999 traditional slant Mesa Recto cab is actually my longest serving piece of amp related gear since I bought it new in 1999. Sounds good with everything I have used it with and better than alot of "boutique" branded cabs that have come and gone in my collection over the years.

    Hey Kyle, nice video.

    Even with Marshall Cabs.... It's brutal.

    I saw Driftwood at NAMM this year. I have to admit, those amps were easily the best sounding amps at NAMM (Peavey's Invective was 2nd). The only reason I don't own one is they are not cheap. If I ever see that Mini Driftwood head for a price I can do, I'll snatch it up.

    Hey Kyle, there's a used Fender 400ps on GC's website. I think you should jump on it and give us a demo. It's the most powerfull production guitar amp ever made! You might need a pedal, typical fender gain.

    Curious as I've been looking lately to possibly add a smaller, higher gain amp for, uhmmm, some fun? Lol.
    Was looking at the likes of a SLO30, Marshall SVH20, 3rdPower, Hiwatt, basically everything..
    Out of your collection there and maybe some you've had in the past, any way you could give me a top 5 or even a top 3 of your very favorites? Curious to know man, thanks!

    sounds great but still waiting for heavy tones more on the vastly different spectrum like the mesa mark 2c+ and the randall rg100es, engl is has done a pretty good job but metal needs to sound different thats really at the root of its death, tone wouldn't be just in the fingers if distortion had more variety

    Glad you enjoyed it. Didn't do it for me. As you were dialing it in, it was low-mid heavy and had a smearing effect on power chords. Later on, when you got the treble up and bass/low-mids under control, the gain structure was too spitty and grainy. It also was very fizzy. Again, glad you liked it and thanks to Jason for letting you show off this amp.

Had to drastically re-eq it and even then it just didn’t sound good. Very disappointed since it was ball crushing awesome at lower volumes. He sold it immediately after.
