    Jason, you're single handedly one of the most underrated UA-cam metal head guitarists and demoers. You deserve more subscribers, it's almost a crime for anyone who's not subscribed to your channel. Much love and respect brother for your videos.

      Yes, i think so, too! It took me from the first moment. I actually thought #1 would be the Rev F Triple with EL34. So much for my knowledge with Rectifiers, and i think i know them pretty okay as i had nearly every 2ch revision on the workbench...😂

    Cool man I’m old school and just started jamming again after retiring I love my Multi Watt Triple Rectifier which I bought in 2002 for $1250.00 which I just started boosting with a Demonfx Precision Drive.I get tired of hearing these young bucks say “ oh man you got that shitty sounding triple Rectifier blah blah blah” This pretty much proves my point.I’m glad you compared the audio this way because I think people will be surprised and shut up with all that BS😂Good Job Brother 👊🏼🤘🏽✌🏼

    Amazing shootout! They all sound devastating, but if I had to choose between them, for my taste it would be:
    1. Multi-Watt
    2. Rev F Dual
    3. Rev F Triple EL34
    4. Rev G

    Man, I can't even begin to express how much I appreciate both you and this video! I could easily write a novel with all the positive things I have to say, but I’ll keep it short. I watched the entire video without spoiling a thing for myself-totally worth it! To avoid spoilers for anyone else, I’m curious about your take on how much of the clarity you’re getting comes from the different power amp tubes you're using. It’s like you’ve unlocked everything I’ve ever wanted from a Recto straight out of the box. Thanks for such a killer video!

    • @killertone
      @killertone  Місяць тому

      Right on, man! Glad you dug the video. As far as output tubes go, the only huge difference I can point to is the EL34s in the Rev F Triple Rec. I really like them in that amp and although it might have a touch less low end compared to when it has 6L6s in it, it is a little quicker as far as response goes.

  • @markrowe1679

    I liked them all, but if I had to choose my least favourite, it was #2.

    Turns out that was the one with EL34’s.

    In the mix and solo’d preferred 4 1 2 3

    All sound crushing! The Rev F Dual and Rev G Dual would be my first picks based on mono and then I would probably blend another amp with either of those in a mix. Killer sounds 🤘

  • @fjk1138
    @fjk1138 5 місяців тому

    I listened to this with my eyes closed. Tonewise, I heard almost no difference between the 4. However, the first one sounded the "cleanest" (ie, had best clarity) to my ears and I wasn't surprised that it turned out to be the Multi Watt, as I have a MW Dual Rec and it sounds way better (again - to my ears, at least) than my 2004 Triple Rec did. I think the next test should be to profile all of them in your Kemper and then do the same test to see how they compare. Great comparison, thanks for doing the video, and above all your playing is really fantastic. I love your channel, thanks! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

  • @Earth-Worm-Tim
    @Earth-Worm-Tim 4 місяці тому +2

    I thought #1 the multiwatt Triple Rec sounded the best, #4 the Rev F was a close second, followed by #3, and surprisingly I thought #2 was flat and lacked dynamic range and just boomy. I've never heard a Rev F triple Rec and I'm not a big rectifier guy, but I will say that Triple Rec multiwatt sounded fantastic with the 33.

I want to like them and have purchased several and gave them a shot but not my thing. I’m still glad to hear the demo. For the mesa lovers this will be a good comparison!

    @OfficialSNMvids Місяць тому

    I enjoyed the comparison and most importantly I enjoyed the "killer" riffing! I own all four of these amps along with a road king v1 and the recto studio preamp and to me personally they all sound almost identical so you can't go wrong with owning any of these amps except when it comes to the price then I would recommend the multi-watt or whichever falls into your budget \m/

  • @Brandon-RZ
    @Brandon-RZ 6 місяців тому

    Thought I could spot the extra top end in the multi watt. The multi watt does a real good job at the F voicing on the red channel. It’s a great amp. My gripe with it is in the orange channel. Way more honky and nasally than the old rectos… and I use the orange more than red, personally. Great stuff as always, man!

  • @Hagstrom4ever
    @Hagstrom4ever 6 місяців тому

    When I listened to them, I instantly noticed a hollowness in the third amp. I owned a 2000 Rev C Dual channel, a 2003 Tripel and they sounded completely different, the 2000 Dual was phenomenal, and last but not least a 2019 Multiwatt last year that was incredible,m a favorite af all of my 3. Rev F is monstrous and surprisingly (not for me) very similar to the F. Awesome riffs Jason.

  • @wizardsouthJP
    @wizardsouthJP 6 місяців тому +1

    Without the reveal my ears thought amp #4 was the most aggressive sounding, I had amp #3 as the Triple rec 2 channel as it seemed to have a bigger low end but wound up being the Rev G, Amp 1 I did guess was the MultiWatt - they all sound so killer IMO. Surprised how well that boost works - haven’t tried the 33 yet, may need to. I recently tried the Fortin Blade into the FX loop of my Wizard MCII as it’s pretty subtle in front of the amps I have. As always, great tones and playing!

  • @UseTheSupeRsonic

    MW fan here. those amps KILL in a mix. The thickness and roar in them is unmatched. It's got the attitude of plexi that's been snacking on spoonfuls of peanut butter and chocolate...that's a Rec. All these dudes out here talking shit about Recs can go pound dirt. And If they ever make one the size of the Badlander 50 and put a build it-in cab-clone IR in it, my head will f'n explode

    @LucasMastropasqua 5 місяців тому

    It’s a hard one because I love ‘em all but I like the way the Multi-watt cuts through and especially in a mix but the EL34 amp had something I liked on the single riff section kind of like extra teeth on the upper mids maybe? I’m sure my hearing is shot though and all those years of playing without ear protection definitely has me liking brighter sounding stuff these days. Always great playing and tones from you man! Did you catch the clip on shorts of the Ground Zero modded Triple Rec Rev G, guy jamming a Les Paul through it with no boost and it sounds insane!

  • @luca4352
    @luca4352 5 місяців тому

    #2 stands out as being a bit darker sounding than the rest (I wonder if that's actually the tubes that do make the difference in this amps), I think #1, #3 and #4 sound very very similar and I liked #2 the least personally and #3 the most. Really cool shootout, thanks for the video.

  • @Edika12
    @Edika12 5 місяців тому

    Amp1 was my favorite on all the clips, less mud than all 4 amps. I thought there where some weird volume and frequency fluctuations on the other 3 but might have been youtube compression. My second favorite was Amp4 and my least favorite was Amp3. The most dull sounding of all four amps. Surprising as Rev G has been mentioned as one of the good rectifiers. I'm glad that the one I liked more is the more readily available and can probably buy it new for less what people have been asking for Rev G and Rev F lately.

    Very interesting. First of all, they all sounded like a Badlander 100 without a boost and I love the BL100, so that's a big compliment. Just my opinion. 1, 2, and 4 sounded super similar and 3 seemed to miss that staccato cut and was a bit darker. I was not expecting 3 to be what it was after the reveal. Great vid.

      Interesting! I did a pretty thorough video on the Badlander as well and it definitewly does not have anywhere near the gain or low end that any of these amps do. That's not a critique its just what I found when I did my video. Badlander is a very cool amp no doubt about it.

    • @BPToneReview
      @BPToneReview 6 місяців тому

      @@killertoneI have both and BL100 and Multiwatt using an Ampete to go back and forth with the same cab. In iboth stock form without a boost. Huge difference between the two with the MW having more low end and lots of unusable gain past 2 o’clock (depending on pickup output). As you know the standard rectos require a boost to get that holy grail tone. Boosting my MW with my Fortin 33 which cuts a tone of low end its pretty much the same with the BL100 gain maxed out on the crush mode with no boost. I don’t use one with the BL, not needed IMO. I alway run the gain on 10. It has a very usable sweep of gain.
      Since then, my MW was modded by John Tokarski who was a Boogie tech for 25yrs and knows the recto layout well. I did a 25 minute video on it given the origins and run through of the amp in my channel.
