Title: Friend's rig
Post by: Stecks on July 15, 2013, 02:07:20 PM
Buddy from here in cleveland was in town from San Fran last week... played on his rig... Tom Anderson Cobra thru a MESA Dual Rectifier.  Pretty frickin sweet..

Noice! Those rec's are great amps. Got a sick dumble tone from one with my LP studio, had to crank it though to get the touch-responsive vibe going though!

Absolutely.  I didn't get to give that rig a full workout (he did, though... dude can play his ass off) but I liked it a lot.  I was going to buy one several years back but got a sinfully ridiculous deal on my 71 Twin..  sounded awesome.  I liked the Tom Anderson Cobra, very unique guitar.

I've heard the Recto's have a great clean channel - I suspect it is somewhat similar to a Mark, but I've never played a Recto. I could never get into Marshal or Mesa Recto dirt channels though - I'm sure they are quite tweakable, but at their baseline sound, it never grabbed me. So that is interesting Fulltone is comparing it to a D-Style - I would never have thought that.
