I own a 1958 5F4 Super. It is a crazy beast. It has more gain than most Marshalls I have played. It is actually very modern sounding, and I am considering getting a 5D4 Super.

Can anyone compare the two versions of the Super? I want to get a vintage blues tone and find the 5F4 to be a bit too aggressive.

I may even build a 5D4 but I am curious about the amount of gain available and the overall punch of the earlier circuit?

Thanks, Jason
