Yep your not wrong on the additional weight of the Amp...........

but tone wise, more definition, more of a defined Rock tone, certainly cuts better through a band mix and certainly a big improvement

Wow blackstar really packs those power tubes into a tight spot.

Guess you aren't going to fit KT / big bottle tubes in there :D.

But cool upgrade.
