 DM> Well, it's damn clean :))
       Damn skippy! This piece of Leo Fender art had this beautiful bass 
response and nice, creamy tone. It took the icepicks out of my Tele. This was 
the amp I tested my brand new Tele on, and this is one of the Holy Grails of 
tone. This thing has this great sustain to it, but it's beautifully clean, 
like it's got a compressor/sustainer built in, but I know all good tubers are 
like this... It kinda reminds me of the Prosonic clean channel, but MUCH 
nicer.

       Well, fortunately, I've got a 4ohm speaker in my Deluxe 112+. For now, 
I'll probably disconnect the speaker from the Deluxe and use it as a speaker 
cab. I'll have a Peavey Sheffeild loaded 4x12, maybe even the one that the 
Dual Showman is sitting on top of at the store I'm buying, which is the one 
that I tried it through... I heard somewhere that it's a 16 ohm cab, but I 
have a feeling that this one may have been wired up parallel so that it was 4 
ohms... Well, I know that this one worked and the amp didn't blow up, soooo. 
:) I'll just have to check it out if I get a different one.
