Thanks guys,
The Marshally high mid focus is definitely the Modern Classic "thing". If anyone is ever curious about differences to this and the MTL lower mid focus, that is the main difference as far as I am concerned.
I am fortunate to have a 2012 MTL, so could plan on doing a similar style vid soon, however I DO want to have another try with the MC II with a bit more contour and treble dialed in for aggressive thrashy tones. Maybe overkill ? lol
