Mesa trade worth it?

So I know the triple rev F is a rare find but would you trade a IIC+/++ coliseum for one?

Why? Is that something that is on the table for you?

I mean it is all relative right? For example, if you already had 3 IIC+ amps and no Rectos then sure...something different. If money was not the object right? If you have neither and are looking for a Mesa and money is an object, then sure - maybe a Recto Rev F. I've never played a Mark IIC anything but most of the clips I hear they seem to have this 'blanket over the cab compression' that is not my favorite. For hight gain. Maybe in the room/under fingers is different of course. I already have 2 Rectos and can afford a IIC+ if I wanted one so I guess my answer is :dunno:

If you are an amp collector/flipper like a lot of you, then IIC+ all day everyday. You could sell it and buy several Rectos :lol:
 
You can’t be talking straight trade? Rev F plus cash to you? Otherwise Rev Fuck no. If you’ve played a G Triple, the difference with an F is so small that an EQ or the right boost would wipe out that difference. I had a Triple F about 12 years ago and it just seemed like any other 2 Ch recto I’d played at the time. Nothing about it parted the clouds and gave me a recto revelation. I much prefer the T-Verb I have.
 
Back when prices were stable and you could actually make comparisons based on value, F triples were around $3500 and C+ Colis were a bit more than double that. Now, who knows, but I bet the difference is still more than double.
