Running through the gain options on the 1959 Modified vs Cranked Stock Plexi settings

I think it sounds great, very cool. But I've been happy with Friedmans I played as well as my XTC Classic have had 25 years too.

Help! Instructions unclear! Bought a DSL40 why doesn't this thing sound like ZZ Top

Grab a JCM 800 combo.....crank it....no boost needed....you're there.

DSL? Green ch slightly boosted? It's been a long while since I played a DSL.
Definitely not the red ch lol

Horses for courses.

Friedmans are cool. I had one particularly nasty (in a good way) early hand wired BE 100...it had a switch on the back that adjusted the NFB to make it sound more raw/open.
That was the most Marshall-y of all the Friedmans I've played.

IME the JCM 2000 DSL sounded a lot better on both channels than the later DSL100H lol

I really dk why when they're supposed to be the same amp
