Cabinet Suggestions for Mesa Rectifier?

Re: Cabinet Suggestions for Mesa Rectifier?

The mesa traditional 4x12 is a solidly built, great sounding workhorse.

The bogner ubercab, w/ vin. 30's and 12T-75's in an 'X' pattern sound just awesome...........their casters are ****ty though.

I'm looking at Bogner cabinets. They just look beautiful. The cosmetic aspect has a certain cachet to it.

Really, part of the problem is my 2x12 Mesa cab is not wide enough for my Single Rec head.

you have the vertical 2x12? Just trade/sell it for the horizontal 2x12. You probably wont need to move any more air than that? sounds like youd have a really loud rig right there.

Quite true - I plan on replacing my Rivera 4x12 with two Mesa 2x12's, and will probably be able to keep up fine with a band using just the 2x12.

It depends on wich tunings u use Keith!
I would go with Marshall 1960 for pure rock tone,but looser if you play lower!!The Mesa Traditional is a murder machine ,very loud and proud!The orange/matamp cabs are the best ones i ever tried ,and handle lower tunings quite good!
But i would have sticked with 2x12 as well.Enough loud and well focused!

This is a very good idea. Anyone want to trade their horizontal for a vertical? :)

I have two Mesa oversize Recto cabs, that I use with all my heads. They can't be beat, only matched. I've tried tons.
 
Re: Cabinet Suggestions for Mesa Rectifier?

I just bought a horizontal Recto cab with V30s, exactly like the one I already have (just horizontal, instead of vertical). Once it arrives, I'll be selling my vertical cab.

Re: Cabinet Suggestions for Mesa Rectifier?

Very nice! The horizontal cabinets are awesome. It'll have a bit less 'punch' compared to the vertical, because of its size difference, but I'm sure you'll love it.

A (punk) band from my town has a guitarist that plays buker equipped Teles into a Mesa Triple Rectifier with a Marshall 4x12. It sounds amazing!! Very smooth distortion, really nice, pure cleans.
