Thinking of trying a Celestion Vintage 30. A fairly common mod for the 5:50 of what I've read.
Playing mostly Strats my sound gets kinda ice-picky even if I dial in minimum treble on the amp.
When reading on the net I've come to the conclusion that the Vintage 30 is more warm sounding than the C-90.
So, I've got two questions for you highly regarded gentlemen of this forum.
1) Would a change to Vintage 30 take away the ice-pick?
2) Does the Vintage 30 take the wattage well? It's 60W I know, but the C-90 is 90W and Mesas are LOUD. 50 Mesa Watts is said to be plenty, do they deliver more than the they say?... Are there any risk of theoretically blowing the V-30 with a 50W Express??
Maybe nOob :roll: questions to you, but anyway...
Thanks!
