Might have to hit you up for a cab build at some point Reg, don't have one at the moment! Also don't have any money so there's no urgency lol.

I nice tweed combo cab and a Jensen would do it justice one day. Interested to hear how first test run goes and how well it purrs like a Deluxe.

I'm unsure if the mods affected the gain but it seemed cleaner than the last deluxe I tried. Although I'm still trying to figure out the volume interaction.
It certainly had an on the edge of breakup roar to it, but I seem to remember you can get a nice saggy Marshall type higher gain out of them too? Although only used single coils with it so that could explain the less gain thing.

What are people's favourite settings for these amps?

I'm no proffesional cab builder that's for sure, this one will only be my second build but I learnt a heap from my first one so I'm hoping to get this one right.
Gonna learn dovetailing for the next one though, it looks pro and no bracing needed either which is a plus.

The tone control also affects the gain I believe?
