Believe found my zone. Do need JCM 800 or DSL 50 or 100 yet.
Broke the cabs down already, Put JSX on the strait cab next to 5150 . Much deeper sounding cab. Going to use slant for k100's when the 800 shows up one day.

Thanks ! No doubt, why i got it is its the tightest response..its quick & it sits right on top the 5150. The thing about These & Ultra, 5150 they do modded Marshall as good as anything out there if you want. Not just the metal, on greenback cab gain dialed back amazing sustain lead tones.

If you ever need to gig that setup, unbolt the steel plates from the front, they weigh about 10lbs each! Ha ha! ( And also the stage lights won't blind you as much)
Also, if you want that thing to really shake the foundation, switch to 6L6 tubes. In my opinion, that's where the JSX really started to shine.

Thanks for info. Buddy came over last night & played while i had 5150 on with it at same time. Was able to dial it in to work in tandem together. Wow what a pair. W
Whats interesting is i was looking for el34 amp & kept seeing this on FB. Guy turned out to be bass player & we did a good deal.
The positioning of the EQ is maybe what am looking for as it is set up. Was looking for the slight sit above the 5150's massive bottom/mid punch.
The clean has floored us with a strat even & learning the EQ interaction, my gosh this amp is a lead players dream on top of the super super tight punch.
The XXX cab is better than given credit for. It really helped my JCM 900 get into another zone.
Now its time to make some music lol been distracted with hours & hours of EQ - guitar & speaker test recently.

Cleanest high gain amp ever made, as I learned, Joe Satch wanted a super clean ch for all his pedals. Seems like they took the clean channel circuit off and older model amp and they just nailed it.
I love the fluff YouTube videos where he compares the 6505/5150 to the JSX calling the 6505 a wild drunken college student and the JSX an older more refined gentleman (or something along those lines)
