My Hot Rod Deluxe is in the closet (for now). Lately, I've been using my 2003 Line 6 Flextone III Plus. I also use the 1x12 ext. cab. I use it on the Plexi Lead 100 amp setting with the Marshall 4x12 cab with Vintage 30s cabinet setting. Does it sound like a Plexi through a 4x12 cabinet with Vintage 30s? No..... But it sounds great to me. Since I'm doing more Prog and Fusion stuff, that amp suits me better than the Hot Rod Deluxe.
