Just got back my Metro amp a few days ago from Tim Caswell and I think she's sounding pretty darn good. It's not a Marshall so don't let the logo on the front throw you guy's. It's a Metro kit I built...'69 spec 100 watt Superlead. When Tim finished it, he called me and let me know that in his professional opinion the amp sounded better than 9/10th's of all the Marshall's he mods (especially the hand-wired reissue). I added some sound files for all who are interested. I know the playing is piss poor but the main goal here is input from fellow forumphiles. IMHO, the amp is a bit trebley, so I need to back off the presence a lot. Furthermore, Tim added a mid-level switch and Lead-Cutt switch that I don't find quite useful. Lastly, the effects loop is a tone-sucker and the footswitch pops. However, I'm happy with the overall sound quality. Ya'll be the judge!

Yeah, El34's with a shitty 2x12 cab with private "junk" speakers.

Yep, sure sounds like Slash tone to me! I'm glad you found the tone you've been trying for.
Can you get a good Under Lock and Key Lynch tone is my question?
Isn't that the SIR amp #36 or #39 that Lynch kept renting out from underneath Slash and vice versa?

Lynch used #39. Slashed Recorded with #36 which was a sort of copy of #39. Slash used #39 For rehearsals.
