What Great Amp! Its' one of my favorites, I have the Badlander 100. It always puts a smile on my face when I play it. I probably would have bought this 25 instead but it wasn't available when they first came out. Nice playing!

Any chance you got to posting the shootout between the Badlander 25 and Rectoverb 25? I've literally been looking everywhere for a comparison as I'm considering selling my ROV25 for the Badlander 25 so I can get the DI Out, USB for direct recording, and a more refined recto sound. Just wondering if its really worth it though?

Yes! It should be up by Monday night, the 21st. I've had an issue with the FX loop on the Badlander that I had to take care of which delayed the shootout portion of this vid.

@@AlexMessanoMusic Awesome, thanks! Looking forward to it as it's hard to find a Badlander 25 in my area to compare to the ROV25 or Mini Rec 25. I think if both amps are similar enough, Mesa Boogie do themselves a favor and just remove the ROV25 from their lineup (mini rectifier is small so it still has a place). But I get the feeling that if someone wants the unrefined rectifier, they'll go with the ROV25 or mini, and if they want an already boosted rectifier, they'll go with the Badlander.
