an SL+ with the JCM800 "mod",from Pete Turley,would be your best bet!!!
Yeah..I'd definitely go SL+ with modded tonestack and tighter bass cap for that...although a Brown or Boosted Plexi would work.
Mr Scary is darker and lower mids sounding to me...although very cool module for both leads and rhythm.

My SL+ already has the JCM800 components and they don't look modded. The PCB layout on the modifications page shows the components I have, as well. If you do find a SL+, check your components (R31, C14) values to see if they match the JCM800 mod.
The benefit of Pete's (okstrat) mod is switching between original stock and JCM800 modes.
Just a thought.

That's no lie! I just got 3 modules back from Pete about 2 weeks ago. I have only gotten one rehearsal in with them, but my band has 4 gigs over 5 days this week. Last nights show was acoustic, but the rest of the week is full blown electric and I can't wait! I am writing up a full review of Pete's work Sunday after all the shows are done and will post it then.
Pete: As soon as I finish a CD I am recording for another band and collect payment the 1086 is headed your way for the warmth/clarity mods and the selectable bass caps on a push/pull knob like you recommended.
