Well, that depends actually. I'm kind of addicted to Vintage too overall, but Raw with the treble high can give you a really nice mid
gain solo sound such as you'd use to cover Allman Brothers, Eagles, Led Zeppelin, etc.,
Clean and Brit (and Tweed I'm sure) are fantastic with good cables for jazz and vintage progressive rock (Steve Howe/Robert Fripp)
type solos. But maybe you need an open back cabinet to really bring those sounds alive. And appropriate pickups and setup.
It takes an effort when using the equipment to help write songs to avoid leaning too heavily on high gain sounds too often. Variety is
the spice of life...
