Holy Crap! I just touched a few Mesa amps!

Yep. I’m not letting go of the Recto slant 4x12 that I have. If I were to go for either head, it would probably spend a lot of time there.
Maybe I’ll think about ditching the Tiny Terror towards it...maybe a couple of other odds and ends...

Good plan.

I actully use the Mk 5 through 1x12's most of the time. Either an open-back with a C-90 or a sealed Recto with a V-30. But with the band I go through the 4x12.
 
Im just gonna leave this here for effect

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to stop at Matt’s Music, and peruse the amps...and everything else. Until now, I had no idea just how tiny the Mini Rectifier amps were! Along with the
Mark 5:25...these heads are truly “tiny”! Less than a quarter the size of my Dual Rec!

I’m talking smaller than my Tiny Terror! These things are REALLY small.
I was seriously thinking of trading in my Dual Rec for one of these, but it just doesn’t seem “right”. They’re like.....tiny....like a Vox Nighttrain....
They also had a couple of California Tweeds; the combo, and head/cab versions.
Plus, they had a couple of Fillmores...the 25, and 50, combo amps.
Matt likes to keep the boutique amps in stock, so there were “other” things of interest in stock too. Like a Diezel, some Dr Z, Metroamp etc...
M u s t.... r e s I s t.....

But....Holy Crap!!! The tiny Mesa amps are TINY!!!
(Oh yeah, they have a Mesa 5:35 1x12 combo in stock too...)

I own the Mini Rec, I got it used on Reverb. They are AMAZING at the very least!
I have contemplated newer Mesa's, like the Filmore, or the Tweed, but this lil booger just does every thing I need.
I run mine through a Mesa Lone Star 19" cabinet. Dude talk about a huge punch from a small package.
