Not a big Recto fan but it sounds cool.

Would love to hear this through a good set of V30s.

THIS.

If it's Recto based, then this is the answer. Mesa and Marshall know what they're doing when it comes to cabs that fit their products.

I played the amp. I think it sounds good. 100% sounds like a modded recto.

Keeping the gain at around 11 o clock keeps it plenty tight. But it’s not super saturated. If you crank the gain up, the low end starts getting loose quickly.

I preferred the gain set low, to keep it tight, and then add the on-board boost for the saturation.

I’m pretty picky with modern amps but this one was cool.

Here’s an iPhone clip of me jamming on it:

Everyone likes to give people grief about miking a cab.

Then we find iphone clips that sound 100x better than a miked cab clip

Regarding the amp it sounds anemic like it sounds small. It has low end but it’s far from massive. I hate amps that the low end gets loose and mushy as the gain is cranked up but I know some people want that as a feature so that they can then tune around it with pedals before the amp and in the loop.
