Hi.
I have the Express 5:25+ combo, and love the (slightly pushed) clean sound I get from it. For the most part I play jazz, and the Express is such a perfect match for jazz that I can't believe more jazz players have switch to it.
Anyway, as much as I love the clean-ish tones in jazz settings, I find that when want to play dirty blues and soft rock kind of stuff, and push the amp's gain into slight overdrive territory, the amps goes kind of harsh or "boxy" or however one could describe it.
Does anyone have the same experience, and might have some insights into how to go from the above sound "issue" to a great slightly overdriven sound?
