They're interactive, so you can really tweak the tone. Dumble voiced the head for me while I played in his shop.'" So is this the old OD internal tone stack or something else?[/QUOTE] I get the impression that it is the same trim pot tone stack found in the "Skyliner" amp. Personally I like to adjust the "HRM" (Hot-Rod-Marshall"?) tone stack so there is little or no tonal shift when the distortion circuit is engaged. I think that's the "magic" setting. ymmv RE
