Recto-Verb Twenty-Five
Owner’s Guide & Operating Manual
CONGRATULATIONS on your choice of the Rectifier™ Recto-Verb™ 25 and Welcome to the MESA Family. The instrument
you have chosen rides atop a 20-year legacy of world-class high gain performance and hit-making sounds that have been at
the core of – and even a catalyst for – some of the very best of Modern Rock. You will quickly find that its small footprint and
manageable weight bear no resemblance to its stature, power and command over blistering-tight overdrive in the realm of big
gain Tone.
Don’t think for a moment this is a trendy down-line toy or marketing-derived imitation of our mighty Recto. This is the real
deal… in every way a high-end instrument. Lurking within this unassuming combo lies one of our most expressive and nuance-
enhancing circuits to date and it creates an exciting, adrenaline-producing Tone machine… one of the most fun to play in the
entire MESA collection.
After the worldwide success of the Mini Rectifier Twenty-Five Head, we were frequently asked to pack all that lightweight ex-
pressiveness and fire into a Combo format so those needing a self-contained package could enjoy this mighty little-amp too.
Never the kind to shy away from a Tone-dare, we picked up the soldering iron once more in the Recto name. The result is an
even mightier package that is slightly larger to accommodate a 1x12 speaker and long-spring Reverb tank and boasts the same
great performance the Mini Rec is famous for. This new Recto offers lush tube Reverb that widens the sound and sweetens the
attack just a bit which increases its versatility and appeal for players that use lower to medium gain in their style. This Combo
and classic wood/vinyl Head package rounds out the Rectifier line nicely and provides a slightly less-menacing voice that still
has all the bouncy, dynamic Tone and feel this EL-84 based Recto has to offer.
Whether you’re rockin’ hard or putting the immense versatility of the Recto-Verb’s four Modes to task on a variety of styles,
you’ll get years of inspiration and enjoyment from this little gas-in-glass-powered jewel. We always strive to build classics,
icons that you’ll treasure amongst your most valuable musical instruments. From the feedback we’ve received thus far… it
seems the Recto-Verb 25 and its little brother the Mini Rectifier Twenty-Five is on its way toward achieving that status.
