"Hello Trace....How about giving all of us some specific tonal scoop on Speedracer's Plexi style Marshall transformers......Compare Joe's with the stock Metal Faced Transformers......"
 
 
 
 
That's pretty easy...here goes..."Joe's OT sounds just like the originals!" That's about it really (ha, ha) It blows the metal faced OT's away and there really is no comparison there. Plexi Palace claims Mercury Magnets OT's are just like the original but they sound more like the later OT's to me (like the one's on the metal faced amps).

He deserves every plug he gets!! At least he IS selling an OT that sounds like the original and is selling it for a very reasonable amount in my opinion.  
 
 
 
Happy Holidays!!!!
