Wow. Well I'm stoked the trailer dropped, and it seems like their Marketing department still hasn't learned much, or learned how to mic up for metal, although Dinesh allllmost got a chug out of it!

I felt so stupid buying my first Mesa and not knowing how to dial it in… imagine buying the whole company.

Yep, that clip sounded like raspy shit....similar to the last 3 ch Recto I tried out years ago.
Not good.

You... you're actually giving the first ounce of credibility to Gibson being able to represent what the amp sounds like?

They mic'd it with a Royer 121. As of right now we have no clue - none whatsoever - about how this amp compares to other Rectos in a scenario actual humans would use it in. It may as well have been recorded with a cell phone in a bathroom.

Same as the IIC+ reissue, we won't know more about how it compares until it is literally directly compared with another 2-channel Recto in a single clip with all other variables remove by someone who knows what they're doing.

Well, looks/sounds like Gibson didn't learn anything from the rollout of the MIIC+RI :dunno:

I'm really starting to give no fucks.

That is probably the funniest thing I've read so far in 2025 :yes:

Oh no, a poor shill has discovered you don’t work WITH a corporation. You are an asset to be controlled and expunged when not performing to expected “standards”.
These guys sell their soul but then get surprised when the new owner gets upset when they try and use it against them. 😂

Hey don’t get me wrong. I actually have no beef with these guys making a buck and getting sponsored etc. But they need to realize they’ve chosen a lane that they don’t control the on and off ramps for.

What’s wrong with a 121?
 
@Greazygeo A Royer 121 supporting a 57, mixed way, way quieter than the 57 can sound great.

That doesn’t sound like what’s happening in the demo at all.
 
The $3,500 price tag on these is insane. The MW with more features was way cheaper brand new before bring discontinued.

Anyways, I still believe that the Road King II is the best Rectifier ever made.
 
I guess he's not popular these days, but I have an FJA modded multi-watt TRec that I absolutely love. Bought it new, and sent it to Jerry. Had him modify the red to more my taste, and some other stuff I can't remember now. Would send it again in a heartbeat. Will be sold at the estate auction my ex wife will undoubtably preside over.

Well said. I couldn’t imagine having to say “all thoughts and opinions are my own. Company X doesn’t even get to see this video before it gets uploaded.”

Only to get blacklisted for forgetting thoughts and opinions aren’t really his own.

Company Y is sending a pedal. They didn’t even ask me to make this video…
