Be sure to read the manual though about how to set your Power and Drive controls if you are power scaling it, it can make the amp brighter sounding or vice versa. Simple instructions really. I don't rate it as highly for Cleans as my Maz or Bogner Goldfinger, but it does what it does well. Whack a Les Paul into it on Classic Rock settings and it's marvellous.
Sounds Great Music have a Badger 35w in stock at a great price :-)

There was one posted on here last week with a matching cab

i had one and only moved it on as I bought a Hedgehog which suited the band mix better after we got a second guitarist.

Replaced it with a Dual Rec when I went back to teh brewtal

Never used the power scaling as the master volume is brilliant.
Eventually I let it go because it wasn't versatile enough, didn't really have enough clean headroom and didn't take mod/delay that well in the front - but i was just too lazy to bring the extra cables for the FX loop, which was great.
I had it with the matching 2x12, but it sounded nearly as good with my 2x10 dr Z cab.

I'm drawn to the Badger for the warm cleans and edge of breakup stuff, with a view to running it just on the edge of breakup and boosting with pedals for extra crunch. The band I'm in currently does a wide range of covers so versatility is important.
I like the clean sound of my Orange Rocker 30 and the dirty channel sounds great too. I like its simplicity and it cuts through in the band really well but I can't quite get it to be right on the edge of breakup - it's either clean or crunchy ( and it's loud)and I thought the Badger might be a good alternative, especially with the power scaling and fx loop but clean headroom is a must have.

It is a really reeeeeally great classic marshall sound in a great size, for a classic rock gig I'd be hard pressed to think of a better amp thats that portable and useable at any volume.
The headroom was an issue for me, just couldnt punch cleanly, even compared to my then 22w fender deluxe (but thats kind of the point with a marshall) so i was expecting it to do something its not designed to do.
I could never get my cleans loud enough to match the amp overdrive volume, so would have to run it clean with an OD which meant the great drive sound of the amp was redundant, THAT was my main annoyance.
I wish it'd had a bit more headroom and/or a footswitchable 2nd master volume, then I wouldve kept it for sure.
