Thanks for the lead. Contacted the seller a couple of times and no response. Craigslist...... .

Up^^^^.

A lot of people are holding on to theirs. I would only sell mine if I found an F triple to replace it with, they are sick amps. Good luck with your search.

One on eBay. He's quite proud of it at $1999.

Yes he is....he said on a best offer he would only knock off $50.00. Do you have any in your stable you would part with????

I sold mine a while back and bought two Multi-watts, a Dual and a Triple...LOL. With an EQ in the loop, I find they sound close enough to the originals, plus I like having the 3rd channel.

Thanks for the response. I think I may have found one. Did you prefer el-34 or 6l6''s in your Rev f?

6L6

 

[tfridgen]

6l6 all the way!

 

[jasonP]

I liked mine with 6L6s as well. Good luck finding one!

If racks are your thing, there's a chrome chassis F that just popped up on eBay. Less wire, more F......

I liked my Rev F with 6L6 as well. I've had two. But I like my multi watt way better than both of them.

What is it about the multi watt that makes you prefer it over the F?

 

[Fordman65]

Fs are great. Very aggressive amp. Highly recommended with 6l6s

It can do what the Rev F does easily. And way more. It’s light years ahead of the regular 3 channel recto. Not fizzy and loose at all. Just very usable on all 3 channels and has a great loop. Clean channel on Rev F isn’t even in same league as the multi as well.

Rev F vs Multiwatt. When dialed in, they can be very close. The Rev F stigma is “older and more rare is better.” Just no reason to get one over a multi, imo.

Wow!!!! thanks for that clip. Fluff always has the Sh*% down with this kind of thing. A layman summary is, F=darker, multi=brighter. To your point....I can hear how the multi can get to the F's tones. Again, thanks for posting.

Pretty cool vid. The reality is while he may not have added any post signal enhancements, youtube in itself adds a ton of compression, so I don't know that this is a true represeentation of what is actually in the room.

That said, I may pickup a reborn and do a side-by-side comparison just for my own knowledge. I've personally found that tweaking the orange channel with both presence knobs engaged really tightens the old recto's up. To Steve's earlier point, throwing an eq in the loop on these reborns probably gets you 95% there.
