For musicians craving the power of a full-stack without sacrificing tonality, look no further than Mesa/Boogie Engineering 4x12 Recto Traditional Slant Cabinet. This beast of an amplifier cabinet is a perfect blend of power and finesse, delivering the commanding presence of a 4x12 with a fine-tuned focus on tonal clarity and balance.

Unlike its oversized cousin, the Traditional Recto 4x12, this cabinet is three inches shorter but maintains the same width and depth. This unique design ensures a tighter low-end response while maintaining the punch and authority you'd expect from a Mesa/Boogie. It's not all about the bass though, this cabinet has a pronounced mid-range and a keen emphasis on attack. The result is an articulate response that's perfect for styles that require tight tracking.

The slant-style design offers a 'monitor' effect due to the top speakers sloping up towards your ears, a feature that can be invaluable when playing live. However, for those who prefer a more direct sound, the one-piece baffle ensures all speakers are effectively 'coupled' for maximum punch and frontal projection.

Finally, the construction of these cabinets is second to none. Made with the finest Void-free, Marine Grade Baltic Birch, the robust construction ensures durability and longevity. The superior dado joint construction and bracing of the speaker baffles, along with the strong twisted jute grille material, all contribute to a sweeter, more harmonious response.

• Tighter low-end response with a strong mid-range
• Slant-style design for 'monitor' effect
• Durable construction with Void-free, Marine Grade Baltic Birch
