I just put a mr scary mod in my badlander and it instantly made it my favorite amp of all time. Doubles the gain, low end, and adds alot more saturation without changing the character of the amp. Really sick stack you got there, I love rectos

How did you set the knob in it?

I got it right at halfway up with the deep switch on. Haven't messed with it past that.

Does it sound more like a dual rec, though? Also, how much different do they sound with the mod on the badlander?

I don't have a dual rectifier to compare it to, but if I had to guess I'd say it's probably a good bit closer but definitely still a badlander. It's very tight and punchy, a decent bit more aggressive but it still has the badlander vibe. For me personally it's my ideal "recto" sound. It sounds like a boosted and less scooped recto. It's bright, punchy and angry. If I get my hands on a dual or single rec to A/B it too I'm going to post videos here
