hey myles, do you think that i can get a good old 'tallica sound out of a marshall jcm2000 dsl50 with a bc rich nj warlock( loaded with a seymour duncan DDb and 59n) and a boss sd-1 pedal?

These are all nice amps. The most clean will come from the 100 watters, but the 50 watters have more than enough clean headroom for most any user I have dealt with, and are generally the preferred wattage of any of the Marshall models for a more versitile amp. None of the DSL or TSL amps sounds quite like the JCM 800. The Randall is even more different than the other three amps but may have other aspects you find great. This is a tough call, and it would be best for you to play all the amps and try to compare. Remember, if an amp cannot do a good clean sound, all it's other sounds will be compromised. would there be one that you would recommend more fot like metal and hard rock?

hey Myles, im looking for a head. i want the famous marshall jcm800 distortion as well as good cleans. i was thinking of getting a jcm800 2203, but i want at least two channels. i've been looking at the marshall dsl 100, tsl 100, and the randall vmax. which ones have tones most like the jcm800 2203, yet better cleans? i also heard that the dsl 50 was better than the dsl 100.can you please help me out and compare these four?
