Thanks Tele Master. Most of the time I'll be playing through it with a Tele, so that's good. What I'm looking for is an amp that sounds crisp and clear on the clean channel, and can handle both rhythm and that classic lead tone, and this sounds like a great amp to check out. The Deluxe does has an effects loop, right? Do you play it with any effects, and is it able to handle them well without getting muddy?
