Post by: d1dsj on February 17, 2009, 12:04:17 AM: Yeah, they work for me. Nothing fancy in the way of mega multi channels so easy to use for my thick head! I only changed the head box for a different look.... still got the Oxblood box as well. Had a MK, Hellcat and now MKII and wanted a different colour... dug the old Orange cab out the garage and well... there you go. :D

I had a Hellcat and an MK50H before this one and when I first had them I used a Mesa Tall 4 x 12 and yeah they sounded dark... it was when I got a Mongotone and the Cornford cabs I really found out how they should sound, but they were far from dark!

I would say they're smooth, not dark. Certainly there's a slight percieved lack of twang in the high end but that's really a lot of the appeal IMO.

Cornfords are amazing man. I envy you so D:
