Sometimes the obvious answer is the obvious answer for a good reason.

After many years using Fender and ENGL almost exclusively, I feel I've finally found my perfect amp.
Years ago I was dissapointed with a 4210 JCM 800 but now Marshall has done what I needed just right:
Marshall driven sound and good cleans, portable, louder than you will need while sounding perfect at whisper volumes.
Only thing is that there's a noticeable volume drop when changing from crunch to clean, so what I though was a useless feature, 2 masters, becomes a must. I have to set one master louder for clean tones, and the other one for the rest of settings, and problem solved.
Just in a minute I had the amp perfectly set. I never was so happy with my previous amps, and pedals and settings didnt solve that. Always fighting against that dryness that dialing the mids didnt solve.
I neither think about swaping the speaker, it sounds warm but bitting from the beggining, and only can change for the better as it breaks in.
Thanks guys for the advice!
Glad you’re happy with your new amp, congrats man!Arrived
