I love the jumpered Plexi. I've only briefly owned any Marshall because the clean is never quite what I want and they're louder than I can ever reasonably gig with. This amp is problem solved for all those tones I've always wanted access to without ever being able to manage pragmatically. I spent one of the happiest tonal hours of my life with the jumpered Plexi last night. I think the other guitarist in one band I'm in is going to rethink his digital aversion when he hears me playing the Plexi at our next gig. I could only play into phones because it was late, but I cannot wait to crank the Plexi into my CLR tomorrow when nobody's around. I might've drooled on myself last night, I'm not sure. I went into tonal nirvana which is amazing that it happened with phones.
