MESA/Boogie 90s Dual Rectifier: Unleash the Power of 90s Rock!
The MESA/Boogie 90s Dual Rectifier is officially back in production!
The MESA/Boogie 90s Dual Rectifier, a faithful recreation of the iconic amp that defined a decade of rock and metal, is finally here. From metal and thrash to nu-metal and grunge, this legendary amplifier powered some of the most iconic tracks of the 90s.
90s Dual Rectifier
Officially teased, the MESA/Boogie 90s Dual Rectifier is back, and preorders open on 14 January. We saw the Mesa/Boogie Mark IIC+ relaunched at the end of last year, and rumors online all suggested this was the subsequent reissue to be revealed.
A Sound That Defined an Era
Released in 1992, the original Dual Rectifier changed high-gain guitar with its scooped mids, thunderous low end, and soaring highs. This wasn’t just a regular tube amp; it was an experience. Its effortless playability inspired musicians, pushing them to new heights of creativity.
Nu Metal and Beyond
The “Recto” became the foundation for countless radio hits with its harmonic-rich gain and aggressive low end. Its versatility made it the go-to choice for bands seeking maximum impact, while its iconic look perfectly complemented its ferocious sound.
Gibson now owns the iconic amp company that Randall Smith built, so we knew reissues were on the cards.
Updated for 2025
MESA/Boogie is bringing back the 90s Dual Rectifier, meticulously crafted by those who built the original. That legendary ‘Recto’ sound shaped a generation of guitar tones and will return with modern upgrades like improved clean channels.
The official details have yet to be revealed, so we will update you when it all goes live on 14 January.
