Hey Pickslide

Cheers, Craig

I have both the 1/2 power & MV on my Liverpool. I am no expert but in my limited experience the 1/2 power does not deliver a useful decrease in volume and the MV does not give a pleasing tone. I have never heard a true Trainwreck or even another clone but my Liverpool sounds great to me cranked, it's really something else, but I haven't been able to find any pot or switch setting that sounds good to me when using the 1/2 power and/or MV. I can't say why, but my Liverpool is as loud or louder than the 50W amps I have to compare it with and I will not be able to use it at the house (if any one is home!). I did build a DIY Airbrake as well and that does make a reasonable volume difference with less of a sacrifice in tone, but it's just not the same as straight-up with the knobs really twisted. I guess these amps are just loud, really f'n loud, and not that flexible as to where you can set the volume. I think you just need to be prepared for that. The up-side, however, is that you'll be plotting for every chance you can get to crank it up! I'm sure my kit is nowhere near what it could be and probably light-years from the real deal or even a good clone, but to me it kicks ass and it's friggin' dimed whenever I get the chance.
