My first nice amp was an OG block letter 5150 my dad got me when I was a teenager in 1996. We were kinda poor but my dad and I both loved Eddie and I was getting good at the guitar so he went for it. Solid guy. A few years later in college I thought it was cooler to have a Marshall so I traded it for a JCM 2000 TSL 60w. Yeah... 60 w. I'm a total douche. I still have that stupid TSL. Now that I'm the same age as my dad was then, and he's gone from the earth, that TSL reminds me of how cool my dad was and how stupid I was. I'm a doctor now and very grateful so have a little money so bought all the 5150s. I wish I could give them all to my dad. RIP dad. I know you know that I was as stupid as you were once.
Hey the TSL rips too man!!
Dude, how?!!! This thing sounds freakin’ amazing. Best recto tone I have heard in RUclips videos (and I’ve been watching a lot of them as I’m debating getting a recto). I think I’m sold after seeing this video. Also need a Mr Scary mod obviously. Thank you for another awesome video, as always. 👊🏼
That amp is sick sounding dude. I was smiling right along with you after the mod. Great to see you enjoying yourself as well!
dude you're the fucking best metal channel for gear and tones on youtube, simples as that... keep going man
As soon as you put the MOD in it, we start hearing and feeling your joy of playing it. Cool!
Anything called Mr. Scary is guaranteed to deliver.
Also, when playing makes you smile huge and smile, it's crazy joy.
Hello, this is my first video here. Great job. I am a bass player, and when the band came off tour for the last time, my guitarist needed money to start his new path in life. so I thought i was helping him with buying his ?1997? Dual Rec. I had only ever heard it on large stages. We had a case maker design flight cases, so we didnt have to take them out of the case. We just removed the front lid/front and unsealed a small plate in the back to plug into. Let me tell you, he did me the solid by selling it to me. Holy S#!+ ! I have had duals paired with the oversized cabs 8-10 times in my studio prior to this point. This THING is a monster! It stays inside the stag/flight case with the front off. The low end is so HUGE yet it sounds so translucent with a face melting sound. Your gutz RuMbLe. Now, saying that when I take it out of the case it sounds like every other oversized Mesa cab. If you can recreate this in any of your own studios, this is a MUST DO!!! But what do I know, I'm just a bass player. ;) Nice channel BTW. Keep it up!
The 90s dual rectos were things of legend. And while I still like the amp - and it sound super unique... not sure if I'd ever want to have one anymore.
The tone in that last riff was nasty AF! Keep up the good work KB!
Wonderful. I somehow needed this today.
Bonus points for the Blue Voodoo cab!! Good solid cabs that can be found for a steal these days.
I had a multi watt triple rectifier with el34 power tubes that looked identical to this. Killer amp
So freaking good sounding!!!!
Man this is absolutely amazing!! Wish I still had my Rectifier. Would be curious if this would work on the OR15? Feel like that amp would also benefit with the extra headroom in the preamp
Excellent work.
That Balaguer is awesome... I love the Hyperions / any "explorer" shape they do is pretty badass.
That sounds surprisingly awesome
Killer, Kyle!!!
Thanks for sharing!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Yep. My 1992 Charvel Rhoads CRR 068. Made for 1 year. Purchased from a shop in Russia for $400. Sold for $700 and got damaged in shipping so one less in the pool. It was almost mint.
Yes. My Laney 4x12 cab and 5150 head from the 90s.
God I wish I still had my dual rec. This sounds great
That’s got a lot more growl and bark than it originally did. Wow. I’ll have to try this!
Yes, I sold my 99 Triple Recto. Most amazing sounding recto I've ever played and only heard a few on youtube with the same mojo this thing had. Sold it along with the oversize 4x12 cab before I went to college and regretted it every day of my adult life.
Nice video!
The riff at 12:13 sounds like Revocation. 👍
Great sound
Oh my, Kyle, that sounds lovely.
That sounds sick dude 😮
What up fellow erieite? Lmao Yo I love this mod I have same version mesa head chrome plate not blacked out. I’ll be getn my hands on a mr.scary mod asap. I’m so AMPED now can’t wait. Thanks bro Randy /BluntForce/LED.
You also have str-430 power tubes in that. Those are the Sovtec 6L6wxt that mesa used for a short time. They are a bit clearer and tighter in the lows IMO,,,,compared to the 420 that are more common mesa chinese tubes.
That’s pretty cool, I’ve seen these before, but didn’t know how well it would do or if it could damage something.
WoW! That Works Great! 🤘🏻
Sweet vid!
Throughout this video I was getting more and more excited about dusting off my old Rectoverb DR head which had been relegated to a permanent location in the closet. Until I heard the price for the mod. Damn... 320 bucks is like half of what I paid for this amp some years back. The mod sounds incredible though...
So now you MUST put the Mr. Scary mod into EVERY amp you demo! 😁 I would be curious to see what it would do to something like a Bogner Uber or a Diezel VH4 (if you have one). Not that they need a mod - just curious what's possible. Or how about the mod in something like a Fender Super Sonic - would that make it a metal amp? 🤩
At the moment I am living in Asia away from my "real" amps back in the US - playing the PRS MT15 which I bought on your recommendation. No regrets there - what a great amp! Thanks for steering me in the right direction! 🤘
*Mesa rectifiers have become the staple sound of metal, and you mentioned the real culprit above all others which is being scooped and having some grain or rasp to it.*
For at least the last 20 years, every amp and every mod I've employed is scooping mids, having a lot of bass, moderate treble and a good amount of grit and rasp, but being I'm primarily a solid-state guy, it's a PITA to tame the high even order harmonics that semiconductors are plagued with.
*This is why digital is certain to take over, they've basically nailed tube fizz and zing, and the chip architecture being manufactured has finally been adapted for asymmetrical clipping and resolving at least some of the high even order harmonic content.*
I'm a bit late to the game, but my s.s. analog designs created from the ground up still do it significantly better than the most expensive digital gear around outside of something like a Kemper.
*The mod you added to resolve this amp's failures is relative to something I'm designing and building using solid-state, but perfectly confident mine will do it way better and for any type of amp technology.*
I regret selling my Peavey 3120 head & 412 half stack. Not that I need 120 watts or have a place to play those 120 watts but all three channels were usable and sounded really good.
Love the All Out War and Hatebreed riffs!
I had a PRS S2 McCarty 594 I sold when I bought the PRS core model. I had upgraded the S2 with 57/07 Pickups. I miss that guitar so much. I didn't like Core model and traded it for a Gibson ES335. I tried to buy it back and the guy had already traded it .
nice tone ! it seems like the mod is introducing a lot of hum on the amp !
I actually liked how it sounded when you bumped the mic😂
Sounds so damn good with the Mr. Scary
I’m a huge fan of Mesa amps. I’ve got a Mark V and a TC 100. I had a single rectifier a while back and didn’t quite bond with it at the time - looking back I never should have sold it
Fun fact, Jeff Loomis used a rectoverb in Nevermore
How do you like that TC 100?
I love the Espada's sizzle
pretty killer Kyle, thank you! Side note, you're getting jacked man!
Love it!!
Wow that;s not bad man, listen to the open high notes that ring out. If you did that on a gain saturated Dual Rec in would sound so bad but those 2 strings ring out nicely
OMG I just realized that you have a Crate out Nice!
Hey Kyle!
Have you considered the possibility of a series of videos looking at pedal-type amplifiers like the Blackstar Amped 3, the BluGuitar Amp 1 Iridium, etc. and comparing them to conventional tube amps?
If somebody has the right collection of tube amps to make an informed comparison, that's you man.
Love this idea
Damn. Those downtuned riffs sound NASTY. I think I'm in love.
Cool video.
Do you know if this mod works with Rectoverbs (50watters)?
Man, I didnt realize you had a Zzounds link too, i knew you did Sweetwater... I will remember that, ive been ordering from them quite a bit lately...
Appreciate you, my dude
There are great rectifiers out there. I have a 2002 modified Dual Rec that sounds and feels great. A boost allows me to shape it however I like.
I can't get the gain past about 11:00. It's just for so much.
that's modded though, not stock
The drop C balaguer sounded insane.
I had no idea the mrscary works in the rectifier!!! Im getting my rev g out again 😁
There are few amps that sound as brutal as a rectifier with a boost. It just always annoyed me that my Roadster always sounded flubby without the boost so I spent more time turning knobs than playing. In addition to the sound, without the boost it was also lacking that awesome feel when palm muting like you are taming a beast, which gets loose when you stop palm muting. It was just always the same level. With the boost it sounded absolutely crushing though, much like the tone in your video. Sometimes when I hear a great rectifier tone I do regret selling it.
I have a newer multi-watt. I use a wampler ego compressor and a fulltone full drive. I think I get similar tones to yours with that setup.
Kyle, I wonder if this would work on the Mesa Stiletto Deuce 🤔🤔
At 11:57 you roll off the treble and there is a cranky noise.. if that happenes when you turn the pot, that’s a sign of DC leakage, and that’s bad! Some caps might need to be changed. Psionic Audio has some Trem-o-verb videos where he also finds this issue, as far as I remember.
ive been follow this mod for a very long time and last month got mine Mr Scary for this same thinking. using it with my amps which are on the loose side. david is the guy. you can use this mod in any amp maybe it works or not the good thing is no damage to the amplifer. so win win.
To answer your question...yes! A 1987 Fernandes Brad Gillis super strat. Man that guitar was cool. Big mistake letting it go. But I was 16, so I didn't know about seller's remorse yet.
I understand that your content is more amp based and plugins is not your deal, but it would be interesting to hear your take on amp plugins that simulate amps you have in your collection, like Josh Middleton has a plugin modeling his personal 5150, rectifier and triple x.
I wonder what the Legendary Tones modules sound like in an amp where they wouldn't be a good fit?
This sounds pretty darn sick if you ask me!
Nice video man, I need to try this on my rev F!
One question though: V3 is the triode that is responsible for the last gain stage and the cathode follower pre tone stack.
Have you tried putting the scary mod in v2, thus affecting 2nd and 3rd gain stages?
keep it up!
Hey man, according to David at LegendaryTones, it has to go in the cathode follower position or it will not work
@@belligerentamateur understood, thanks for confirming this!
17:30 were you "soaked in torment" while recording those riffs ?
This amp sounds like an All Out War.
Joke aside : sick Recto tones
Call me crazy but when you bumped the mic it actually sounded really good. It really accentuated the characteristic aggressive top end rectifiers have
Was thinking the same thing too lol
Oh yeah...Sovtek Mig 50 and a Jackson Cab(for guitars...studio gear is a whole nother ball of wax!)with G12t's best rig I've ever heard to this day. I was a fool to get rid of it! Thing sounds better than a Mesa for sure. Thick and weighty!
I wonder if the hot mod works in a soldano or jet city. Rectifier’s and soldano being so similar
this is just the best video
Had a brand new Mesa boogie triple rectifier. I had to sell it to pay some relocation bills. Ughh 😢😢. It was Awesome 😎👍💯👋👋🎸🎸 want to buy one again 😊😊✌️✌️
What is the low frequency hum in the background is that a normal tube amp thing
Will that Mr scary work with a single rectifier series 1? Kinda wanna try it
Holy fuck! That first drive with the Balaguer in Drop C is insane!!!!
6:32 Front delt exercise right there! The sound is awesome! 🤘
That thing sounds brutal without the scary already
What is the pedal 3rd from the left on the amp? Thanks
I dunno, I reckon I get good mileage out of a ten band mxr EQ in the FX loop. Turns any amp into any amp.
I think it all really depends on what the other guitar player is using along with you tbh.
Sounds brutal , heavy , grinding , mean 😦
where did you have the output knob set during this demo?
Kyle, thanks for the video.
I’ll be watching to see about the multi watt.
Any idea when it might be available for purchase?
edges?
@@belligerentamateur sorry, typo. I meant a production version
I bought a hand wired rack mount Dual Rectifier from a shop near Mesa in Cotati, Ca. I previously saw one on eBay for $1,700 so I offered $700, the guy accepted it. I took it home, put it on eBay for $1,700 “buy it now”. I then commenced to playing it a few minutes to be sure it worked. THREE HOURS later I stopped playing and realized how long I sat in front to that amp. I checked on eBay to cancel the auction and to my disappointment, it had sold within minutes.
I regret selling it to this day. It was the only amp and only time I had sat down for that long a time, playing.
That's insane! Wonder if it'll work in my triple rec? Sounds great man ❤
I have several JCM style amps, and a trec, now I'm wondering the same thing!
Same preamp structure so if it’s a 2-channel version you’re all set. We are still exploring the 3 channel and multi-watt versions.
@@LegendaryTones nice to know yup I've got a 3 channel....
@@LegendaryTonesgood to know, because I own a 1998 Rev G 2ch Triple Rectifier head.
@@untoldguitarist Perfect! 🤟🏻
Notice the crate bv cab don’t sleep on the blue voodoo line!
What boost pedal are you using?
Do you prefer this over a newer multi watt?
I wonder why it says this on the motorcityguitars website?
Popular amps that the HMV2/Lynch Mod DO NOT WORK with include: Marshall Silver Jubilee series, Marshall Origin series, Marshall DSL/TSL series, Mesa Boogie amps, and Hiwatt.
That was an old description from our own website. Before we validated this amp. We’ll let MCG to update as well.
I actually enjoyed the bumped mic sound quite a bit
Is this thing why your old multi watt is listed on reverb?
I love that mod
yeah, I'm gonna need the whole list of compatible amps pinned in the fb group 😂
i want to eventually get a dual rec
Yow, Mat not Damon. You think these would work on the 3 channel multi watt?
the hermansson modded rectifiers are the best rectifier sound on the planet. misha mansoor,fredrik thordendal, and tramonti all have them.
Now time to see if it’ll work with the Badlander and Stiletto 😈
It works with the badlander but not the Stiletto
I love my single rectifier. Shri has some serious balls
Will Mr. Scary mod will work on a mesa rectoverb combo?!
Never played a real Dual Rec but have played some sims and have always struggled with them because of that muddy gain i could never get a tone I liked. While there is no Mr Scary mod for simulators I now understand how the gain on a Dual Rec works and that will help me shape a tone I like.
I also never played a real one cause it's too much $$$ but I plugged in my guitar to an amp sim with no overdrive or anything and for me it's perfect. I didn't need any OD I just have EMG 85x in the bridge
Si you think you can throw the mr scary into the mini rec?
Dude! That thing is fucking sick! Now I must find one...
Sounds dope, never saw one of those before. Is the one you're using in your recto the standard or reverse wired? Site doesn't talk about anything but Marshalls.
Standard wire. We’ve recently updated our compatibility page to include this one (more models to follow as well).
@@LegendaryTonesnice! Do you have an European distributor/seller where I can buy the mod?
@@LegendaryTones Awesome getting a reply from the source. Thanks
That blacked out Dual Rec looks sick.
Bro! That might be an emergency, take it the Tube Amp Doctor!!
