Did some jamming last night.... I'll see anyone who says that the DSL40C can't do good tones at home-friendly volumes and raise them these tones here:

That was damm good, tone for days, I like it and want to hear more! Were you going straight in? Or did you use a pedal?

Thanks for the kind words! Going straight in. The SG has the really hot 495r and 495t "firebird" pickups, which are kinda junk for cleans, but really have some mojo with the Ultra gain. My settings are:
Ultra gain/Lead 2 - Gain 9-10 o'clock - Volume 9 o'clock - Bass 3 o'clock - Mids dimed - Treble 9 o'clock - Tone Shift off - Presence 9 o'clock - Resonance 3 o'clock - Reverb/Ultra noon.

Not a defensive thing, really, didn't mean to imply that the CR doesn't sound good, just different. Feels different too. For me CR is not as raw and in your face as the C - seems smoother and more "modern", not sure how much of that would come across in audio clips tho. If anything it seems like they've moved it more in the direction of the JVM, which is cool but I already have a JVM combo so I like that the old model is a little different from that. Enough of a difference that I like having both, but I could not see the point in having both the JVM and CR, ya know?

Well there you go. A description of what you meant! I need all the help I can get.
