    With the worldwide success of the Mini Rectifier® Twenty-Five Head, Mesa have been frequently asked to pack all that lightweight expressiveness into a Combo format so those needing a self-contained package can enjoy this mighty little-amp too. Well, your wish has been granted - and it gets better...
    Introducing the Recto®-Verb™ Twenty-Five Head and 1x12 Combo, the Reverb-endowed, fraternal-twins of our little Mini Rectifier lunchbox that's been taking names all over the globe. These even mightier packages are slightly larger -- just big enough to accommodate a 1x12 speaker (in the case of the combo) and long-spring Reverb tank -- and boast all the same great performance that the Mini Rec™ is famous for and more. Plus, their classic vinyl-covered birch cabinets provide a wide array of custom finish options to fully personalize them.
    The lush tube-driven Reverb widens the sound and sweetens the attack just a bit, increasing its versatility and appeal for players who favor lower to medium gain in their style. But don't fret... for those into heavier tones the trademark Recto® sounds are all here and completely authentic.
    So whether you're rockin' out or putting the immense versatility of this new Recto's four Modes to task on a variety of styles, you'll find inspiration and a huge fun-factor in these exciting, super-portable 1x12 Combo and Head packages.

    Mesa also has some of the best customer service out there. The integrity of the company is all the justification I need to pay the asking price. $1548.00 delivered to my door. I mean, it's something that'll last you a lifetime if you take halfway decent care of it.

    Lovely sounding amp and a great review. I listened to this after watching the Andertons one... where they p**sed-around and gave Martin no opportunity to show-off the amp. I want one... but I ain't going to buy one from Andertons !

    Great review of the great sounding amp. As to my mind you will need a booster pedal in front of it when you play single coil guitars.

    Danish Pete from Westside Distribution ......ah, that’ll be the company that when you send back a non working faulty new unit they send you (through the shop) not a replacement new one, but an ex demo unit. Happened twice to me now...

    "Relatively inexpensive" he says.
    £1399 is NOT inexpensive. You could have a JCM 410 for that. You could have 2 or 3 Laney ironhearts depending which you want.
    That's full on professional amp money for a bedroom combo.
    Good vid though. Nice demo, nice sounds.

    • @MrMightymind
      @MrMightymind 10 лет назад +5

      Yep, I'd love one - but you could grab loads of fantastic amps for way less. Shame really, Mesa keep skinning the UK & EU with crazy prices. It's $1249 in the US which is £750.87 in the UK - I'd buy one at that price... not £1400 - almost TWICE the US price.

    • @DaveDoingDaveThings
      @DaveDoingDaveThings 10 лет назад

      Hmm, I'd consider it at that price too.

      Very expensive but Mesa isn't only one to do this, check out other manufacturers and don't limit yourself only to musical instruments or amplifiers, effects etc. In Europe we have higher Vat tax, more countries that also means more currencies and laungaues etc.

    • @MrMightymind
      @MrMightymind 10 лет назад +1

      Certainly I understand the argument - BUT... The Amps are sold in the US with all but the international shipping costs you stated above factored into the US Price (local delivery, Sales Tax, Manufacturing costs, Distribution company costs, reps, local retail costs & markup etc.) - So I think you can discount those elements of your argument. So that leaves International shipping and any duty on those goods, local delivery costs in the UK and VAT on the sale. I do not think that they DOUBLE the cost. And I am not attacking Mesa, a lot of "premium" goods in the UK show this kind of "controlled pricing". Apple's good, for example are designed in the US, but built in the far east and then shipped to local territories for sale. Apple heavily control local pricing structure world wide to maintain their premium image. It's also well known to international brands that the UK (and some of the EU) will put up with this "premium price inflation". We're suckers for falling for it :0(

      I'd say a 52 RI? I was gonna say the FSR Standard but the Control Plate isnt switched around it looks like.

  • @MrMightymind
    @MrMightymind 10 лет назад

    Guys, I watch your videos, listen to the Podcast every week. But on this one you have me stumped. "Reasonable price". It's not guys when you see the US price and realise in the year 2014 it's bloody cheap to ship stuff around the wold - and even VAT doesn't make up the cost hike. I'd buy one of these in a heartbeat at the 750-900 GBP mark. £1400 is just TOO much. :0(

    • @wiziek
      @wiziek 10 лет назад +4

      Maybe they meant resonable for Mesa? To be honest every Mesa product is too expensive for me. Anyway most tube amps are overpriced and during live performance or after recording and mixing typical listener wouldn't be really able to tell a difference. Tubes are thing for guitar players and audophiles who believe that golden cable would make difference. Why Russia is making good tubes? Because they were still using older technology while other side of Iron Curtain was going forward with electronics.
      What is really funny for me are all those lovers of tube amplifier amp using solid state drive pedals with them :0.

      Westside Distribution ho ho ho... if you want to listen to crap about UK prices listen to this video... its full to the brim. The pricing is hiked dramatically by that distro and if the dealers discount they just might find it hard to get new stock... NOTHING has changed in distribution for a very long time and WD are past masters at it. Reasonable price my a**.

    • @tonymckenzieofficial
      @tonymckenzieofficial 10 лет назад

      ***** No its not the way of the world at all. Why pay £3100 (or thereabouts) for a Road King II when you can buy one for $2700. The shipping is not as bad as many think, and the tax still makes that amp substantially cheaper than one from the greedy's. Personally I would NEVER buy one from the UK distro's who control the pricing - illegally I might add. And yes, I really could go and manufacture, import and distribute equipment make no mistake about that. Why don't I go for it, simple, I do other things that make me far more money than any musical equipment can ever do, I don't have the 'hassle' of selling it to end users (or dealers for that matter) and would NEVER invest in manufacturing in this industry because it will without doubt over time be decimated by Chinese equipment the likes of which you have yet to see. I've seen it before, and while some Chinese gear is not of the highest class, some of it is - take the H&K Grandmeister for example (which BTW also suffers from the same increased UK profits - its at least £250 cheaper in Europe than the UK) and when China really does do the developing (they will) you will wake up and wonder where people like those I mentioned have gone... I can tell you - they will have gone to the wall. Understand that the changes in the music business will undoubtedly make it extremely hard to be in that business in the way it is today. I don't know your experience of manufacturing of technology, but I have been involved in an awful lot since 1979, and even seen industries I was once involved with completely wiped out by very high quality Far Eastern products where designs are either compromised or developed by those companies, in fact the same way that the music retail and distribution business will eventually go in the UK. BTW it's nothing personal, but I do feel that these sort of things should be generally known to unsuspecting potential buyers of illegally fixed pricing in the UK - don't you?

    • @tonymckenzieofficial
      @tonymckenzieofficial 10 лет назад

      ***** Its not just boogie? I mentioned H&K? what's that got to do with Boogie? Surely you don't condone this sort of price fixing do you? No I don't have 110v I fit a PT for all voltages - takes about 1 1/2 hours and that's it. You misunderstand me - I don't want/need hand outs from anyone, least of all some makers that would like me to say something about a product that is not quite what they say it is. But like I said, answer the question... do you condone price fixing in the UK do you? Hey, you're not a politician are you? LOL
