You will not be dissapointed choosing a Rectifier. Here are my favorite Mesa heads in order:
Dual Rectifier Tremoverb
Dual Rectifier 2 channel (the older the better)
Triple Rectifier 2 channel
Single Rectifier
Rectoverb
I think the Recto is unfairly typecast as not being versitile - I've got some pretty damn cool non-metal tones out of mine. It does take the one trait every Mesa amp owner must have, though - patience. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
I'd say Recto, but I'm biased, and I haven't heard the JSX.

Division - American Metal that doesn't suck. Much. Even on Facebook.
Mike is right.. The time is well spent searhing for "your" tone out of your Boogie. I have a Nomad 45 that literally took me 1 month to dial in but now that it is.... holy crap. At first it sounded like ass. Rectifiers are alot easier. Especially if you are looking for a high gain metal sound.
Yeah, I've heard a lot of things about Rectifiers not having enough versatility, but I don't need much, just a good clean and distortion channel. I have effects on my house, so effects are not a problem.
i saw joe at a local music store in my town doing a promo tour for peavey showing off the jsx and that amp is amazing it has as much gain as you could ever want and then the clean chanel is pristine and he didnt use alot of effects while he was playing so you could really hear the amp.and on top of that he was one of the coolest guys youll ever meet
I'm going to try out a XXX tomorrow. Many people have said that they're pretty awesome. Altho I'm leaning towards the mesa for that "legendary" mesa crunch. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
