Just if the Sig:x is anything like the Ultralead, its versatility is fucking ridiculous is all.

Mark IV's on the other hand...

Yea I know that smartass I meant I'm not sure why it's permanently changed into the usual "Rectos sound good for low gain" discussion like seemingly every other thread haha. Wanted to get back to the original topic.

The bottom line is, Rectos sound good and are more versatile than people think, we all agree. However, those who are familiar with the Sig:X or others from the Pittbull line can attest that there's no comparison in terms of versatility and tone shaping flexibility.

Tone of course is subjective. Obviously I think the VHT's smoke Mesas in both low and high-gain applications, but only real-world experience for the original poster can determine whether he'll agree with that.
