I know it's a stupid question but with an EQ and a Gain (and maybe more) pedals, can you get a Plexi to sound close to an Express? I think I read that the Express was based (somewhat) on the Plexi circuit?
I had a Ceriatone Express side by side with a Marshall Plexi RI (through the same cab) and I had a Morning Dew EQ and a few different Overdrive/Gain pedals in line with the Plexi. I could get them "fairly" close but there was something different in the mids in the Express that I just couldn't dial in. Does anybody know what would get me close- even what frequencies on the Plexi might need to be goosed/brought down. Maybe I need to pick up an EQ with more flexibilty? I know there are "trainwreck- type" pedals but they all cost almost as much as the Ceriatone did!
Like I said, I know this is a stupid question but I'd really like to get them as close as possible so I don't need to drag both amps around- I'm a bit of a freak with this stuff. Plus at this point it is more of a challenge than anything!
I hope to hear from somebody who has some technical insights into this or has attempted the same.
BTW, thanks for the heads up guitar_ed!
