Mesa trade worth it?

[FuriousMopar1968]

Have original IIC+ and rev F prices come down since the reissues?

Ref F is higher than ever from what I’ve seen, Is the Reissue Recto voiced as a Rev F or G?

 

[Dale B]

No

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

Dude.
Your amp is worth 3x maybe what the Triple is worth. Double for sure.
Straight up? Whoever that is would be laughing all the way to the bank when/if they sell the Coli.

It's not really a straight comparison such as how the MW is voiced like an F. The RI is voiced like how you dream a Recto should be voiced.

Fascinating, I’ll definitely have to check one out, Thanks for the info!

The only fair comparison would be one of the rare rev C triple rectifier prototypes floating around.

Super rare for super rare. That’s a trade you could do straight up and be safe.

A regular rev F? Nope.

Maybe a rev C dual rectifier plus cash, but that would be dependent on personal tastes. Cheaper to just have Mike B convert a rev G to rev C at Mesa before he retires.

FWIW I had Mike convert a Triple G to C specs, and having a real C as well, I was very disappointed in the mod. That amp was far better as a stock G & I shouldn't have fukked with it.

The Rev C was an amazing amp, but nowhere near a C+ Coli. Half the value at best. And, the DR RI sounds & feels better.

My mod to C spec turned out great. I like it much better now. Tighter and less need for a boost now.

Reminds me of the 2C SRG before I +'d it....it was the raunchiest, nasty in a jagged good way sound I've ever heard. Came back smooth and awesome as a C+ but damn...I wish I'd left it alone.

 

[Exo-metal]

Not really on topic but I think we need someone to un-plus their C+ for some context.

 

[GJgo]

My first one was a IIC HRG that I had Mike C+ and then later C++. Stock it was more like my very late IIB KRG, raw AF, and I always regretted +ing it as well. I've had to learn the hard way so many times with mods- if it's not broke, don't fix it.

 

[Exo-metal]

Mayyyybe un-plus the plus portion of my coliseum and leave the ++ in the equation cuz that shit is legit af as they say.
