Members Faber Posted May 21, 2008 Members Share Posted May 21, 2008 I see these or sale used all the time, and I'm beginning to get a bit curious. I know the Mark series, and the Rectifiers. Are the Caliber and Dual Caliber like either of those, or are they something entirely different (and if so, what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Welladjusted Posted May 21, 2008 Members Share Posted May 21, 2008 They're the younger brothers to the F-series and Express series. No frills and much less complex than the Mark series. They're not as high-gain as the rectifiers or Mark IV, but they're similar to the Mark III and older, but still have their own thing going on. They definitely sound like Mesas, and they're definitely worth looking into. I had a chance to get a .50 caliber many years ago (it was in need of repairs, but still would have been pretty cheap), and regret not doing so today.

Members Busk Posted May 21, 2008 Members Share Posted May 21, 2008 I like them. They are nice, basic amps. Can't go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members csm Posted May 21, 2008 Members Share Posted May 21, 2008 Used to know a guy who had a Caliber .22 -- sounded good with his Les Paul and Explorer, less so with my Strat and Tele. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
