The amp has a touch sensitive sweet spot a mile wide.

I quoted RickyD because I wanted to say the same thing about the Marshall and couldn't have written it any better.
The Marshall does have more headroom with volume because of higher wattage. Marshall cleans are
vastly underrated. You can also jump the channels and get lots of good tones.
I'e been a lifelong Fender and Musicman player, but gigged a Marhsall Bluesbreaker (virtually a JTM45) for a couple of years and was completely bowled over, it was an absolute joy to play live. Rich, rich cleans.
You should try both for yourself, I could be happy and productive with either one.
