I had a few questions about the tones... can it do smooth modern sounding leads? can you describe how the amp sounds like? Is it dry? Saturated? Organic? Metallic? :?: :!:
Thanks In Advance!!!

D'you think I could achieve Satriani like tones with it??
I might be getting one soon, I've been looking for a amp for smooth high gain leads and low british gain... I have a Dual Rectifier, which I like better as a rhythm amp...
What do you guys think???

I heard this dood at the music store playing it an it sounded awesome, but when i tried it, I guess I didn't mess with it enough.

just do not dare to put all knobs to ten - thats the way to play marshall.
play with the midth and bass section. for me its more than enough, take a look to the left of this message ;-)
dean69 said:yes mostly - but if there is not enough gain i combine the two preamps.
i use the setup for recording, the amps are just to say "very fine stuff"
wasn't disappointed with the sounds available by now. though the internal fan is a bit too noisy.
someone asked here for recording amps, for me the Ace is definetely the one.
live i use them both by running just one preamp, mastering the effects and stereo back into the main amps. thats ok, loud enough anyway ;-)
listen to it - but when you crank 'em you are lost and you will pay the bill for it
enjoy!

there is a fan in the Ace combos? i have an Ace head and it doesnt have a fan. it sure heats up at rehearsals, but never too hot.
edit- guess it makes sense given that combos are upside down heads so the heat will rise into the amp

I stand corrected . Theres no mention of it on the 2007 price list .
