RECOMMENDED — not currently owned; adds the British upper-mid bite and tight low-end crunch the small tweed/silverface circuit lacks
The Vibro Champ lacks an overdrive channel, gain knob, and midrange control, so the Volume must be cranked to 8 to force power-tube saturation from your humbuckers. To approximate Mick Ralphs' thick British Marshall JMP bark on a naturally scooped, bright Fender circuit, roll Bass down to 5 to keep the 8-inch speaker from farting out and push Treble to 6. If you acquire the recommended Marshall-in-a-box pedal, back amp volume down to 4 for clean headroom and let the pedal generate the core British crunch.
