I REALLY like the rich lead tones, but I can't coax a tight, punchy bottom-end, even into an extension V30-loaded 2X12 cab..
I've tried:
1. MXR 10-band, in front, and in the loop - no dice...
2. Rackmount EQ, also in the loop - no dice...
3. Boss GE-7 - in front, and in the loop. Sounds OK in front, but colors the tone, almost like an OD pedal, and adds too much hiss!
4. JJ EL84's, and have experimented with JJ ECC83's, ECC803's, (one in V1 sounds best), 12AX7EH's, and Ruby 12AX7 C9's.
I'm tempted to take it back and get my DSL100 back I traded, or gat an Engl Fireball head..
Give me reason to keep it/help/suggestions...PLEASE!
