The Boogie is in the house! Pictures!

Well I went and picked it up today...been playing it for a bit, getting reacquainted with the way mesa/boogie tone controls work. It's a killer amp. Two channels all with their own gain, EQ, presence, reverb, master....a great recording out and a speaker mute switch so I can record silently (a big plus!) , effects loop, slave out, and 4ohm/8ohm/16 ohm outputs....footswitchable channels...25 watts, 1x12...not bad for $360 :) I'm diggin it!

Cool amp!

I have a Dual Rec 2x12 combo that I keep in my office 'just in case". ;)

Never suspect you'd actually own a Rectifier. I always thought you'd be Marshall through and through.

Hehe, you're not too far off. I'm not a big fan of the amp. I made it as Marshally as I could, actually! :)

Put in 12AT7s, EL34s, and use the SS rectifier ...

The amp is loud, robust, and sounds good, which is all I need at work.

That being, said, I have a lot of respect for the Mesa Dual Calibres. I think they're great litte amps!!

Nice amp! I would have picked it for that price, too.
I have an F-30 that I really love (but I paid much more).

Man, this amp definitely gives me some of that crunch and grind that I don't get from my Fender's and missed from my rectoverb and my '71 super bass. this is definitely picking up that last tonal frontier that I wasn't getting :)
 
Re: The Boogie is in the house! Pictures!

apparently the story is when this guy bought it, he bought it because he was in college and needed something for his dorm room...well after college he closeted it and it's been there for nearly 10 years...and now I have it :) I put new tubes in it and it's just a joy to play...I freakin love it :)
