Congratulations ZMAN!
Glad you found what you wanted in a small tube combo.

Zman, I really like voices 3 and 8 for quick and easy sounds - not hyper gain voices either, but way more low gain. But I agree about the high gain voices, they are great.
I am always finding new sounds with this amp. It really has some depth of field to it.
As far as other higher power Fender amps I don't think they have a "so called" all tube amp that has a lot of amp voices and effects. They have two channel versions of the VM and a hybrid really expensive Cyber Twin SE with two preamp tubes but a solid state power amp; it's stereo 120 watts hybrid, motorized control knobs, lots of amp models, etc., over 1200 US. But nothing like the SCXD.
Glad to see you reigned in that amp. Sounds brand new or almost brand new.

Glad you're liking it, ZMAN!
One of the things I really like is the fact you can get that nice tube amph feedback at lower volumes w/ a good humbucker guitar, and really make it howl w/ a semi-hollow w/ 'buckers. And you can control the madness w/ the volume controls and your pick attack. As you said, the effects are quality, also. That was one big difference I found between the SCXD and a Vyper I tried. Maybe the Peavey was a lemon, but I really didn't care for the effects after I tried the Fender.
