If you look on the back of the amp you will see 2 master volume pots.
They are PPIMV types and the first one you can set for your rhythm playing as normal and the 2nd you can set higher that you can kick in via a footswitch for leads. Won't be needing my Keeley SD-1 anymore.

Just a thought, couldn't you have run a MXR Micro Amp or some other booster in the loop for lead boost??

Yeah you could but it would change your tone. The dual masters don't.
Click on my soundclick for some clips. The super quiet clip shows how well the PPIMV works. You can actually hear the pick attack on the strings coming through the mic.

that just turns into more gain and noise most of the time with a slight volume boost... this dual volume mod will give a nice noise free solo volume boost... dam i want that amp!!!!!

This particular amp with its mods costs just under $2200.00 U.S. from Bray. I picked it up for $1600 used from a guy that bought it just 4 months ago. Its still brand new.
I didn't put those stickers there. Either it came that way or the previous owner put them there.

Man it sounds really good!
Hotrod marshall in spades!
Love how the knobs have a more coppershine to them, or is it just the lights??

Wow sounds absolutely friggin' awesome. And to think I passed up on a on opportunity to own a Bray Modded 1987x Marshall last year for only $1500 AUD...:smack:
What guitar and speaker cabinet did you use for the clips?
