Get an EQD Special Cranker. They work really well with Marshalls and thicken up the sound a lot. . I like them better than Tubescreamers.
I don't use outside pedals or equipment...I'm strictly a guitar plugged straight into the amp guy, but thanks!

If I had to get a Friedman for the Marshall vibe, it would be the Runt 50 or the JEL 20.

For the record...

My new to me 2003 made DSL50 came in yesterday.

The Mercury Magnetics Axiom Mar50-0 OT in it really makes an enormous difference. This things sounds ridiculously killer...SO much better than the other DSL50 I had. It gives my 2204's a serious run for their money.

I'm going to have my tech take a look at it though, cuz the right tube (when looking at it from the back with the panel off) won't bias up to where I need with EL34's in it (all the way barely gets to 30). With KT77's and E34L's I can get it right, but not with EL34's...so I'm running it with E34L's right now. I'll have that dealt with early next week as well as a general run through for overall health. I like this amp so much though that I went ahead and ordered the appropriate 3H choke from Mercury Magnetics and I'll have my tech replace the resistor with the choke while he's doing the rest.

Another +1 for the DSL. It wouldn't be my first choice but Marshall circuits are kinda my jam so I'm picky.

I had a Runt 50 and it was awesome but didn't do enough to differentiate itself from my Jubilee and Splawn so I sold it.
Too much junk to list with 255 characters. :facepalm:
