I had a Fender Blues Deluxe, piece of shite! Even after a complete re-valve and bias (courtesy of Martin W when at Matamp), even a speaker change didn't cure that harsh top end. It was only clean for 10-15 watts at most, then it broke into clipping in the most non musical way. The drive channel was pointless too. The Hot Rod Deluxe is much better with a louder clean sound and better drive channel
