Good stuff Mickey.
And for autumnleaves:
Do you want your SL-X to be permanently cleaner as in you have no need whatsoever for the high gain capabilities?
If so, besides the obvious "get another amp that does that" advice, you could always bypass V1. I am experimenting with this right now as in possibly making my SL-X a channel switcher.
Have you tried turning the Master Volume up to aprox. 7 and keeping both Gain controls at 9 O'Clock? It works really well like that on my SL-X - but I have modified mine quite a bit to accomplish that as well. Mine is real close to that Plexi tone set this way. The first Gain adds more bottom end while the second Gain adds more Dirt and crunch. That is one of the cool features of this amp in being able to get a wide range of tones. If you were to run a 5751 in V1 or both V1 & V2 and set it like I posted above, it might just work out for what you want without doing any modifications.
