Friday afternoon thought noodling. I have a JCM 800 combo. It sounds ace cranked with an Air Brake to tame its incredibly loud output. With my 73 Les Paul plugged in, gain on 4, MV on 10, it's killer.
However, it would be great to have a foot switchable boost. Nothing too wild, just a little kick for solos. I was doing some eBay trawling and came across a Silver Jubilee combo (2554). It appears to have this very feature.
So - does anyone know how the basic tone compares with my 800? Is it basically the same thing with (more) knobs on?

Or just stick an sd1 in front as @ICBM said.
