After buying what i had hoped would be the perfect "all in one" tube amp by Marshall I decided to return My JVM 410 head and 1960A cab. For a tube amp of that price it sounded surprisingly sterile, and solid state, not to mention is also on the noisy side. Between the lack of good sounds and bad build quality (plastic knobs, etc) I figured I was wasting $3000 and decided its time to switch to mesa.
I tried both the Roadster and Stiletto Deuce Heads and love both but decided to order in the Roadster for its versatility and great sounds.
I realize I will not get the "authentic Marshall sound" From this amp but I was wondering if
A)Buying a stiletto cab would work with the roadster, and if it would increase mids and take a little off the bass which I have been told the recto cabs are known for.
B)If I choose to switch out the 6L6's for El 34's will it give it more of a marshall sound? I'm just curious if anyone has done this and what they think of the results.
Finally I was wondering what the situation is on customizing amps as the custom shop has a nice gallery but Not too much information as to how to have it done.
Thanks For your help
