One of the first songs I did with a band back in 78'. Learning all the parts back then was a big deal for me. I still think the riffs are pretty cool. The early stuff just had great hooks.

If the Modern switch only adds gain, I don't think I'd need it, all the voicings have just enough gain w/o being stupid/fuzzy/mush-tone... Too much gain kills the attack for me unless you can play VERY LOUD!
I like the SAT switch although I don't use it much. I think the natural gain in the HBE is more to my liking but the SAT is awesome too. I would definately suggest getting it without a doubt. You're lucky to be local...if you get the modern, let me know what you think.

I'm still waiting for my order of M75-65s to arrive and that'll really help me get the amp's voicing down as far as cabs/speakers go... A quad are going in my old 4 x 12" straight cab. And two are going in my 2 x 12" Marshall vintage cab... After that, I'll know if I even need any "Modern" or "Sat" mod switches (BUT THEY COULDN'T HURT!!)....tonmazz":vvdum0bc said:tubebury51":vvdum0bc said:I wish I'd had Dave toss in the Modern or Sat switch when I had the KS mods done a few weeks back.

I tell ya though, the Master volume setting on the "KS" modded marshall REALLY determines the bottom line. If ya can get it up past 9:00, the amp really starts to shine!
It does sound good at low volumes and that's a tribute to Dave's talents, but with that Master turned up... Holy shit!

That was nice.... I'd love to wank on power riffs with a bunch of killer amps at high volumes! But, your avatar ruined everything for me!

Well we've been using it for a while now and it is just awesome. So big and present. Dave rocks!
