A Marshall Plexi?
Yes the trouble is most makers design a Plexi based on how you hear it on old recordings. Besides the obvious post production the guy playing it is using a Rangemaster treble Booster and an early Fuzz pedal.
So when you buy most Plexi pedals the sound you hear is the amp plus the pedals going thru it.
I have a Plexi and when you dime it it still sounds clean but it has a lot of compression because the transformer has no headroom so it acts as compressor giving you a lot of sustain.
Think of Hendrix doing the Wind Cries Mary. It is a 100 watt Plexi cranked but without pedals.
The Plexi has 2 channels that can be patched together to the right is bright channel and to the left is the dark channel. So you have a knob to blend them. The tone is otherwise fixed.
So the the 45/100 is Jetter's take on a stock Plexi. It will give you the tone but you have control over the level. So even guys with a Plexi like it so they can turn down their amp and get the sound of it cranked.
It will also give a Fender amp a Marshall clean sound.
CONCLUSION
Since I have a Plexi I can tell you that they have done a damn good job.
You could easily leave it as an always on pedal to turn a Fender etc. into a Plexi.
You will have to supply your own dirt pedal to overdrive it. :-)
