I finally reached a goal I set for myself. I wanted that classic combo of a real Les Paul and real Marshall tube amp. I saved and paid cash, no need to finance a hobby. As this is couch guitar, I bought a new Marshall DSL1hr. The cabinet has a 12 inch Celeston Vintage 30 16ohm in it. One watt of Marshall tube goodness. No emulation, no modeling, no apps. I used earplugs, dimed the clean channel, used only the TC Electronic Spark boost pedal. Played some chords. It has that Marshall growl. I put a DB meter next to me, six feet from the speaker. 106.4dba. 1 watt is louder than you think. This means I will use it in 0.1 watt mode to protect my hearing while keeping that Marshall sound. I can not wait for the power chords section from Justin Guitar. LOL
Well good luck with the new rig. Do you play gigs or just play at home? If that is just for home I think your neighbors are going to love you. 
enjoy dude!
This is for couch guitar. Rural area, no close neighbors. No wife. LOL
Good on you, man! Go get that tone you crave. I have at least five or six ways (amp, pedals and DAW) to get Marshall tone, but as a Fender amp tone guy, we must all find our own way forward. 
Nice, I bet it sounds as good as it looks. Gear can be really visceral. These pictures from the guitar book I had as a kid are exactly the reason I now own a Mesa Boogie amp and Black Beauty Les Paul. Took me about 40 years to get there
Hi Paul.
Happy NAD 
I wish you a lot of good noise together 
Greetings,Rogier
Enjoy the new Amp!
Congrats. Nice amp. Enjoy the sound.
But don’t forget to also practice with a clean tone, especially if you are not yet into power chord and barre chord territory in your guitar learning. Distortion nicely covers up our mistakes, as can some effects pedals. I love turning up the gain on my Orange Crush 35RT and strumming Barre chords of Ramones songs with all down strumming (like Johnny Ramone) - it’s a kind of therapy for me 
, but when practicing and trying to perfect new techniques seriously, learning new chords, learning new finger picking or strumming patterns and learning new songs (which is most of the time), I always play completely clean so that I can hear all my mistakes. Also, I got to really appreciate the tones of an electric guitar (in my case with single coil pickups) played clean or with only a slight bit of breakup provided by the amp.
This is very true, although there are times when distortion highlights mistakes, particularly lack of string muting with lead lines. A high gain sound will make any unwanted string noise very apparent.
That’s certainly true!!!
Yes and exactly. When I practice, do the chord perfect or one minute changes, I run clean. It reveals the mistakes. Once I know the chord such as A D E, I will play a bit. How does this sound with boost?, How does this sound with fuzz? I wonder how Link Wray’s Rumble sounds with a boost pedal. LOL For now I use the clean channel.
