see and thats the thing. I'm not looking for extremely high gain. I play experimental rock and hardcore punk. I want it to be the perfect inbetween to the general mesa tone and marshall. preferably I'd want a mesa heartbreaker for that foo fighters tone (someone told me that that was the only...

I go back and forth on whether or not I like my head or not. the sound I'm looking for is getting more low end on my head and having it sound crisper. do you think using el84's instead of 6l6's will help with this a little bit? are there any mods I could have done on this head? when I listened...
