Mesa 2x12 Rectifier Vertical Cab

I just took delivery of this cab today. I plugged in a PRS into a Baron Snott Watt amp (5 watt) and to the cab. The cab sounded great with the little amp! The clean channel came through clear and open while the cab made the "modern" channel sound amazing! Plenty of chunk! I have a Mesa 2x12 horizontal cab as well. The horizontal cab placed on the floor gets lost while the vertical cab placed on the floor has great projection to the player and sounds great!

Worth the Special Order Wait.

The speakers sound great as you would expect. But the vertical orientation, while requiring a special order, is well worth the wait. Great high-quality product.

Awsome cabinet!

I wish I could have got this from Sweetwater, I had originally bought a Mesa Boogie 550 212 Express from a local music store and wanted to step up to a Mark V. I had called Sweetwater about a Mark V head but it was going to take awhile to get in because they were on back order. My local store had the a Mark V head on the floor and was going to allow me a good enough trade in price for the Express for the Mark V, so I went ahead and bought it. The Mark V is the best amp on the market in my opinion. I have bought a lot of gear from Sweetwater and I gotta say my salesperson Bob Furlong has been great to work with, all of the staff at Sweetwater are top notch in my book. All of that to say this, when I got my Mark V, they didn't have the 212 vertical cabinet but had the horizontal, so I had them order the vertical and they let me use the horizontal until it came in. I used the horizontal for several gigs and I gotta say, the vertical 212 destroys the horizontal cabinet. It's a bigger cabinet and actually covers a lot better for trying to match stage volume. I am 6'2 so it's hard when you've got the sound hitting you at the ankle level. Also the vertical fits perfectly with the Mark V. Highly recommend this cabinet and wish I could have bought this from Sweetwater, they are great to work with. Cheers, Ken
