I have a mint 2010 quickrod, that after some time dialing it in,sounds fantastic...to get what you want out of these amps,you must, must,must spend time w/ em...the payoff is realizing and understanding what Scott was going for on this amp...Out of the other $2500.00+ modded marshall type amps out there,the quickrod does stay true to the marshall vibe a tad more than some others...If I ever move mine,it will only be for a real marshall modded by Freidman...time well spent working a quickrod will payback in great tone...take your time w/ it.
