Tone is subjective. I don't know why you would need this gizmo when any good JMP style amp with a good overdrive will get you there.
My Mesa MK III/MK IV or Dual Rec would destroy that V-2 toy.

Not good, not bad, just different.
Well, it was originally designed for a non-master volume Marshall so you can get a cranked Marshall sound without the need for an attenuator. Having owned a non-master volume Marshall since 1990 and played them on 10 more times than I can count, I was floored how close my amps sound by using a simple plug in device. I’m just showing that it also works in a master volume JMP as well. I agree a good pedal out front of a Marshall JMP sounds killer. The plug in device sounds very different than solely using a pedal out front.
I’ve owned all of the amps you listed and they are cool, but obviously the Marshall sound is quite different and those amps can’t sound like an old non-master volume Marshall and Marshall can’t sound like those amps.
Thanks for listening.
