No promises but there is an effort to make this happen.

Mike P said:Attenuator???? Why in the world would you need an attenuator for a master volume amp?
And your "more authentic" quote is complete and utter nonsense.

meaning- when I had my old superlead, it sounded great cranked, but my god it was loud. When I used an attenuater with it, it sounded ok. With the Grailtone, I can get cranked plexi tones at reasonable volumes. Just my opinion.

Mike P said:Just for the record, here are a couple of new tracks with the Bully and a couple of old tracks. If these don't sound like "ripping" 1959 Marshall's, I'd like someone to explain what they do sound like.

Sounds really great! Whats your setup for this...what amp and what power tubes?
Jaded Faith said:Lot's of questions here!
The original 59RR featured the JMP/JCM switch, a simple Diode Clip circuit (adds about 5% more gain, but changes the shape/feel of the gain), the Vintage/Modern tone stack switch and the original Haze circuit. This is still made as a 5RR Standard upon request.
The 59RR Custom was made as a special request and replaced the Diode Clip with a 2/3-Stage switch that allowed an additional gain stage to be added. This was way cool and became a standard product, replacing the original 59RR.
All of this was thrown together into one with premium hand-selected components and offered as the limited 59RR Platinum.
The Grail Tone is unique in that it runs two uniquely-voiced stages in parallel to each other and blends them at the third stage. It allows for a huge range of gain colors to be dialed in.
The Silverado is completely it's own thing ad not like any of the rest. It uses a floating 2nd tier, a very unique pair of diode clipping circuits and a loads of ways to mix and match them. Very unique tone and feel.
I recently had two different SG MK22's in here for repairs and I can confirm this mod has a lot in common to the stock Judge under the hood. This reference might be useful for those who are curious and having a hard time locating one.
Hope this helps!
