Made a swap in my 12 series today from the Mercury Magnetics O100JM to the Metro Dagnall Vintage clone and oh my what a difference!!!
In my opinion this amp sounds like a Marshall now more than it did before, as well as generally feeling and sounding better altogether.
Before: stiff, compressed, with insufficient mid range and shrill highs.
After: More knock, more mid range grind, more harmonic complexity, and more musicality, with a looser more relaxed feel. Very Sweet.
Wish I'd gotten one sooner! Mercury works for higher gain modern and metal tones, but it felt limiting. Definitely not as sweet as now.
Thank you George for the wonderful tone at a reasonable price! Wouldn't know what to do without you and the Metro Amp community!
