Mark IIC+ - how "brown" can it get

[Zif]

I know it's obviously not a marshall voiced amp, but how brown and warm can it get when you fiddle with the EQ, etc? From my understanding its warmer than a Mark IV.

Not looking for the marshall tone specifically, but I do like to be able to get a fat warm distortion.

I'd be happy with something like...Vh's "Fair Warning" meets Metallica's "Master of Puppets" :twisted:

So you know, my gear is a EBMM JP6, with a G12H-30 loaded Marshall Cab. Also would run a Replex tape echo in the FX loop.

For a brown type of tone you would probably be better off using some broken in Greenbacks.

Here's a few clips i made.

Just a straight clip with no backing a just a little reverb. Marshall 4x12 with Greenbacks.

And here i was going for an Eric Johnson type tone with Greenbacks again. I remember i had to keep the treble sliders down.
