Guys that pass on a IIC+ HRG RI are blowing it.

I’ve had the HRG RI for three days now, and have been comparing it to my OG SG++, and it is indeed a killer.
The OG is considerably more raw, warm and vintage sounding, the RI tighter, punchier, juicier,
with more growl.
The RI is considerably more modern sounding, without the sterile, filtered tone and feel many modern amps have imo, while still being 100% C+.
Just like the Recto RI, Mesa knocked it out of the park with this one as well.
The PS is for my 72 SL, not the Mesas. Lol

THe HRG RI is FAR more dynamic, punchy, clear and organic than the JP.

The JP holds together better with a 7 string where you need it to be more compressed & flat.

The mic pics up a little of this, and there was a massive difference in the room.

I never liked a 2c+ . I’d take a mark 7 over it . I can not see what makes this amp so special . I sold mine . So it’s truly subjective . I mean if I used the same logic from my point of view I could say my Larry destroys these mesas . But I’d be wrong because many would still want their mesas .
