I have a DSL 40cr, I love the classic gain(green) channel. I play in a cover band. My setup is a vol pedal, compression pedal, two Timmy pedals, a HOF reverb, delay.
I keep it on the green channel, when I want more gain, I kick in a Timmy or maybe both ( I set them up differently) . I have a great variety of tones at my disposal. Problem is the amp has started to intermittently cut out. So I feel I can’t trust it. And there is a big issue with getting it fixed, and the same problem happening again. There’s a lot of posts relating to that
Any ideas on an alternative amp, I’m not going to get any of these amps like the dsl that has programmable chips and modern channel switching electronics. I’ve had Fender deville’s, had a Mesa Lone star special. And a few other amps and they were good. but that DSL 40cr classic clean is the canvas I need to play through. I was thinking of a JCM 800 1x12 4210 combo. That’s probably my ideal, cause my love of the sound I’m after initially came through playing a JCM 800 in a studio I rehearse at. I’m hesitant to get an old used amp
So long story longer, any ideas on any current manufacturers making a good new JCM 800 clean channel type sound, or DSL clean channel sound. Or thoughts on a used JCM 800 1x12 4210 combo. Very aggravating to find your tone, and the thing breaks.
