Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier

100-watt three-channel valve guitar amplifier head

The Dual Rectifier is a 100-watt (switchable 50/100W) three-channel, eight-mode all-valve head driven by four 6L6 power tubes (EL34-switchable via a bias selector). A Rectifier Select switch toggles tube or solid-state rectification per channel. Its thick, saturated high-gain voice made it a defining modern metal amplifier.
