Mesa Boogie Mini Rectifier Twenty-Five Top 5-stars Reviews

Amazing little gem

When you unpack it, you almost feel it's going to let you down because it's so small. And then you plug it in... and unleash the beast. What a sound!!! I play a lot of styles, from metal to jazz, but mostly heavy metal. The gain channel is great, with 2 modes, so you have a lot of possibilities and can get really high gain tones if needed. Has more than enough power for rehearsals and live shows and it's portability is amazing. The clean channel is also quite good but here I feel the 10 watt setting doesn't give you a lot of headroom if you're playing with loud drums, bass and guitar so most of the times I have to stick to the 25 watt. Haven't experimented much with the "Crunch" mode of this channel.

I'm very happy with the amp, you get 4 styles in 2 channels and basically can cover everything you need soundwise. Now I understand its price tag, but believe me... it's worth it.
