While I'm waiting on my Roadster Head I have been playing a ROV 1X12 Combo. The Vintage mode with a boost really screams. Much smoother than I remember my 3-Channel Triple ever being.
Does anybody know which channel in the Roadster (3 or 4) the ROV lead channel is most like? The presence pot in the ROV is a different part # than the ones in channel 3 or 4 of the Roadster, so it must be a different value as well. The taper of the pot seems to feel like it is almost a compromise between the 3-channel's pots, smooth under 12:00 and cutting above 12:00. In Modern mode I could utilize the presence around 10:00 to 11:00 with the ROV, where in the red channel of my Triple I had to keep it under 9:00 or it would get too harsh (ice-picky).
I'm really diggin the ROV in Vintage right now. With EMGs and some front end boost this amp is way creamy and in your face, and I have had no problem dialing in a really good lead tone, something I could just never seem to do with my Triple. I hope I can get the same feel from the Roadster.
