I also think the Matchless is A and the 11R is B. The A tracks seem to have more "glass" as I would call it. A bit more sparkle. But both are awesome and it's really close.

Well, I don't know which is which, but, I like 1A and 2B the most. But both are really good - and would be happy with either sounds.

It will be interesting to see what the final results are - and would be good to know the guitar he used to get those sounds - because it's clear that the 11R reacts differently to different guitars.

Nice work, thanks for doing this! I guessed both right, and the difference was quite obvious to me. 11r was good, but missed some of the "tube warmth".

Fender American Deluxe Strat with Tom Anderson PU's. Great sounding guitar.

It sure is .

But with the recorded samples the one I liked best was 2B. But it wasn't a huge margin of difference. I preferred the opening of the second track on the 11R more, but, when it got to the chords that amp made it sound a little warmer .

Now, hows about a Fender comparison .
