The older three channels get slagged off a lot but I really like them, clean channel and loop sucks though.
Two channels are great for the modern and vintage modes, probably the best for all out metal and hard rock tones.
TBH you can't really go wrong - the older three channels dont have a great clean, the older two channels have an even worse clean and the new muti-watt three channels have a good clean. All of them have great pushed clean, mid gain and full on metal tones. Though Rectos actually have less gain that people think, you're not going to get Diezel levels of filth out of them!
Great amps - the two channel tremoverb on ebay is meant to be one of the best models Mesa made of the two channel - very heavy weight wise though!
I've owned both the old 3ch and the multiwatt 3ch versions, so can share my experiences with them.
I'd suggest a Roadster - like mine. But not at that price
However, they are voiced like the old 3ch Dual Recs, so if you like the multiwatt voicing more, you’ll have to make your choice.
They are also heavier (in weight), if that matters.
If you ever record anything with it, I'd love to hear it. There's somethingwarm and nostalgic about hearing about gear I used to own.

I use the clean, blues and vintage high gain channels and they all sound great to my ears.
I don' use the modern high gain channel and have sold off the majority of my dirt pedals this amp made them redundant.
Still don' get the FX loop!
The reverb is all is ever need and the tremolo is nice and vibey.
