NAD - Mesa Boogie Triple Rec Rev F.

[fretout]

Ha! I've only been looking at this thread on my phone and didn't even notice the green in the pics.

As always, anything is worth what someone will pay and that always changes. Look forward to any clips you might make Reza. When I got my Rev F it was purely because I love the chrome chassis, black face look but after playing it for a short while it was just another recto (which has never been for me really) and I sold it soon after. I would get another one just for how much i like the way they look if I ever have some disposable income lying around but so many things would come first.

interesting, I thought the triple Rev F was a rare find...seems like its just another Recto here.

They're rarer than say a Revision G, but it's a common amp that is for sale if you know where to look. The thing that makes people think they're rarer than they are is the chrome chassis. Like all of the Recto Revisions, they all sound a little different, but the Vintage/Modern tone isn't all that different than a Revision G. The main difference between Revision F and Revision G is that Revision G has a much better clean channel. The Revision F's clean channel has a lot more breakup to it and it's much more difficult to get a clean tone.

Sure, what do you need to know?

How much should I sell it for?

I got one of these, same cosmetics, off craigslist a few years ago for $1000. I imagine you could sell it anywhere from a $1000 to $1200 depending on demand etc.
The chrome chassis models are sexy mofo's but tonally it's just a recto. I wouldn't automatically put it sonically above any other without playing it first. Just IMO of course.

YOu got a blackface triple F for $1000? That is a gooooood deal. Personally, I'd value Reza's amp at around $1300, even with the oddball colored tolex. A $100 more if it was black. I mean, they almost have to go for that. A blackface rev F dual goes for roughly $1200+.

My triple rev F blackface isn't a good example because mine is a Kyle Rhodes modded amp.

I wouldn't give you more than $1,000 for a blackface Rev F dual recto... Unless it was in mint condition with a perfect head shell and all new tubes...then maybe $1,200.

That is all and well, but I believe the market wouldn't agree. Don't get me wrong, deals are out there, but rev F blackfaces are consistently going for more than that online.

There is one for sale in the classifieds for a long time and it's not selling.

This one?

It's not a blackface and has no tolex. Polished/black goes for cheaper.

Last blackface F I sold was last December right before christmas for $1175.

Something got lost in translation. I'm referring to "chrome chassis" Rectos...

I have the exact same amp, but with black leather headshell. Also it is an export model, so it has the 230V for europe power.

The Triple rec Rev F is my favourite rectifier I've ever played, a keeper for sure! Enjoy yours.

First off, gorgeous fucking recto there.

Now you need to start a myth that now the export models are the real ones to get and get a bunch of us Americans trying to score them at exorbitant sums and use a step down transformer for the Voltage... The Tone! The Tone!

Hahahaha that would probably even work too!

Almost a necro bump. Thought just for interest as market value was thrown around a lot this chrome chassis Rev F dual recto just sold for 1000. Well 1065 with shipping.
