    Spongy mode is dead on Roadster

    Hi guys, I am pretty much a noob when it comes to tube amps. I have a Roadster 2x12 combo and normally played it on Bold mode but got a bit adventurous with the amp the other day and discovered that 'spongy' mode is dead for lack of a better word. I get sound out of it but all channels sound...
