Hey guys! We just posted a video talking through the signal chain for this video and how we record everything!

[makoto]

I might have said this before on a previous video, but man, the camera work, editing, and overall production value of your videos is insane... props to whoever works on these, they've always come out fantastic!

Dual Rec = French Roast
Triple Rec = Dark Roast

Great demo. I like that you switch between amp samples quickly. Makes it a lot easier to compare.

I am now the proud owner of the Dual with matching cab in this video. Thx Nicholas!

[Levyo]

More comparisons need to be like this with quick riffs and frequent switching. Too many go a whole verse and change after I forget how a riff should sound. Good stuff.

[MrMann-gteh]

Holy shit, all these years I thought I wanted a dual... I clearly need both of these.

[radkins]

Triple rectifier. Why? Because if you are going to be a a Grizzly.

[whoshotya]

Triple sounded like it had a bass guitar behind it! Triple is my pick.

[mattastic]

Really liking the mids on the dual. Great vid!

[romanoforsale]

This is a pleasant surprise discovering this channel. Gonna go look at more vids, nicely done!

[ChrisStarkGtr]

Great playing! This is the kind of demo that leaves you as a viewer well-informed, so thank you for posting this! There was no talking over the sound examples and very clear on-screen indication of what it was we were listening to at the moment. Both amps sounded superb, especially with such precision playing. Although the differences in tone were subtle, it was clear that the dual has a bit more of a mid-focused tone than the triple.

Great video. Straight to the point, no talking forever. Appreciated. Thank you!

[OmniscientVirtuosity]

This video rules. My man can get a ridiculous sound out of these. Amazing

[bobleshingle]

Your video production is really, really good.

[americafirst]

Finally someone who can show me which one sounds good because he can actually play. I liked both but I’d pick the triple. I watched three videos on comparing the duel and triple but they couldn’t actually play the guitar. I’m buying my friends triple rec for $400, once my tax returns come I’ll be a happy man. I’ve wanted a Mesa boogie or a peavey 5150 since 2001, since my first metal band. My little crate combo amp couldn’t play loud enough for my drummer. Lol

[davidslattery]

high quality video, great job all round! would like to see the signal chain video for sure!

[theauthenticsteve]

Both sounded better in different parts. I'd be happy with either but I think I'm more of a triple guy.

[adamfigueroa]

Great video and KILLER song! Is it available on one of the streaming platforms?

[jakeb]

loved the triple. and would love to see your recording signal chain.

[adamkahn]

seemed like the dual was more of the flavor i lean to....
