Thinking of buying a dual rec multiwatt already have a badlander?

Same F-d up parallel loop forget using pedals unless you mod it which ain't too hard.

It probably "ain't" for one of us regs.

But a short bus special like you would be hard pressed. Can your fat fingers even hold a soldering iron without shaking?

Did we send @shar-vell Dan back to his singlewide to cry to his "wife" that we are all being mean to him again? Or is he looking for twenty memes to post as a response since his intellect is too small to come up with anything original?

I own both. A Badlander 100w and a MW Dual Rectifier.

Different enough that I have no problem keeping both.

There is a bit of overlap, I suppose if you compare "crush" on the Badlander with "Vintage hi-gain" on the MW, but they really excel at different things.

The MW has noticeably more lower mids and low end chunk compared to the leaner Badlander low end and more Marshall-ish upper mid content.

I look at as, a MW is the best 3 channel Recto iteration; absolutely very much Recto in its tone! A Badlander is more a modified JCM 800 style amp with some Recto inspiration. Yes, I know all Rectos can trace back to the JCM 800, but just stating for comparison sake.

If it matters, they also do feel different to play: Badlander is more immediate in attack and fairly dry.

I apologize, sir. I will say that even though soldano ripped off the 5150 by copying it into a circuit he called the slow, the dual rectifier is the most pleasant amp a man could play
