I would kindly dispute that all of the so nics that are available with a Tweed Deluxe are distorted past any certain point on that 'dial'...no matter how it is numbered. A hard hitting picker will find it a challenge to get a clean sound at any appreciable volume no matter where the volume is set....I can get that amp distorted at 3 with vintage output pickups if I want. Conversely, I can get cleans that are just as loud as the distorted sonics at any other piont of the volume setting. It is all in the pick attack and/or guitar volume control. The amp's compression keeps a 'lid' on the max volume. You can play clean rhythm and go to a distorted lead with just a change of pick attack or volume control at the instrument.
IF that '12' really bothers someone, take a clue form Rickenbacker. I have a Ric champ-like amp that only goes to '7'. Nigel Tufnel would never deign to play on such a thing, now would he? LOL
