Some settings to try out:



Absolutely. This videos are actually what really pushed me towards looking for a 101b. In the first video above at 4:55, the tone is what I was after...that grindy mid character particularly. Also Blake Mansfield's 101B sound pretty amazing as well. The settings guide included in the zen amps video, along with a lot of tips here at the board have been very helpful.

Indeed! Blake has a great ear for tones and I really like his gear demo vids. He put a final nail in the coffin for my Marshall 1959HW acquiry earlier this year! 😎
 
Settings pictured below put me about where I want to be using a Norton or a JB in the bridge. With exception of volume being lower than normal in this pic (b/c my dog was laying close by) and red excursion on medium due to that low vol, I can run through the entire amps different modes (new, old, class A, low input plus boosts on/off) while keeping a killer tone and barely touching treble/bass/mids & presence. The Norton makes you work a little harder and the jb just seems to play itself on the red channel. Note I have pres 2 assigned to channel 3. Great rhythm and lead tones IMO. Crank the volume and it will rip your head off.
