[Nitrobattery]

Pretty solid start to 2022

 

[PurityS.L.G]

Thats a helluva way to start 2022 for sure! Congrats man. Stupid question for sure but how does it sound?

Rev C. The best of the best imho. This will be a keeper.

 

[SpiderWars]

Badass, congrats! I'm really looking forward to a clip of you having your way with that beast.

 

[RedPlated]

Blacked out is killer look.

 

[VESmedic]

YES

 

[Bro KV]

Sweet, love the serial (Alvin Kamara fan)

 

[DragonCrestPC]

Fucking sick! Congrats!

 

[PhilC]

Congrats!! I sold a pre-500 rev D. I've really regretted that. Enjoy!

 

[errrrrl]

Wow, that thing looks in awesome shape too.. congrats!

 

[braintheory]

Congrats! And also very jealous since I want one. I’ve got a Rev D in the 200’s serial that’s one of my top 5 favorites

If anyone can chime in who’s had both how the D & C compare tonally would love to hear! Not tying to hi-jack though the OP’s killer New Amp Day thread

I've had a lot of Rectifiers over the years from different eras, and this one sounds pretty amazing honestly.

That’s how I felt with the Rev D. Never seen one before with both a black treadplate and chassis. Usually it’s one or the other. Looks cool

Looks mean!

 

[Exo-metal]

Well this thread doesn't suck. That amp right there is badass incarnate...just one thing, can I have dibs bro???!?!!!!!!!!!!

 

[ErikT]

Whoa that's sick! Grats dude, I bet it slays!

 

[VESmedic]

that’s probably the earliest recto I’ve ever seen I think. Other than the first recto ever made that’s in a mark IV headshell or whatever. Dare I ask where you got it or what it ran if you don’t mind?

Tube amp art

 

[Elliott]

Wow! Congratulations! I'm curious as well. Where did you score that gem, and for how much?!

Facebook marketplace of all places. Bought it locally from a nice guy who used to play in a band in San Francisco. It had been in storage since around 2000.
