90s Dual Rec Reissue vs. Recent Multiwatt Dual Recs

[Bxlxaxkxe]

Can I ask why you got rid of all 3, dual rectifiers just not your thing?

I love rectos but they will never be my main ride- Marshall guy at heart. I’ll def have more rectos in the future though

Got it, yup same here, that’s why the cheaper price point of the multiwatt is so allurring

It does not matter which recto I’m playing . The way I boost and gate it I swear I get the same tone Everytime . It’s a great tone . I just usually get them in the same ball park .

Same. They all sound the same to me after boosting, which I find mandatory on any version. The only one that sounded noticeably different was my Tremoverb. The multiwatt is fantastic and would be my first choice.

Multi-watt is a great amp. I picked one up for a good price a few months ago, after not having a Recto for years. Really digging it!

Compared to my old Rev G dual I have owned, it is a bit tighter and less scooped....kinda how the 90's Rec is a bit tighter and more mid aggressive than the Multi-watt. Might be make/break for some guys, but they are small differences and more alike than different; all Rectos. I like the Multi-watt enough that I don't think I will spend the $$$ on a 90's one.
