Here's a really good video that shows what is an excellent example of what this amp sounds like and he's using the Rack mount Badlander 100 . If your looking for the sub lows and loose feel of the original Rectifier then you wont be happy with this one but if your looking for a Mesa that has the voicing of a Rectifier with the crisp response of a Marshall with a fast attack and a more percussive sound then you will love the new Badlander!
This is also a cool video for the Sykes fan as well.
If I hadn't just scored some Wizard amps this would not be going anywhere but my wallet needs to recover..
ESP’s description is spot on, and so is the representation in the vid. The BL is a killer amp on it’s own merit, and should not have been called a Rectifier, to avoid the comparison.
