These ones are quite light too - only about 65lb from memory. If you want truly heavy - and much louder and cleaner - try a late-70s silverface 135W model with the optional Gauss speakers... madness.

Epic, but not unusably loud. Keep the treble down and the bass up a bit and it will limit the cutting tone, and give that flubby Beatley thickness. Or just crank the treble and get the Big Brother & The Holding Company Ball And Chain tone - not for everyone, it has to be said... but you can't get that visceral rawness with modern gear, it just doesn't work.

That’s not to say the Twin is quiet overdriven! They’re still loud - just not as painfully loud as you might expect, and the reason people use them for clean headroom is that they’re the minimum amount of power you need for that with a Fender combo, a Pro or a Super break up a bit too early. At normal drummer volume, a Twin isn’t far off that.
But I do think it’s quite funny that the most renowned overdrive amp (Super Lead) has a wonderful clean tone, and the most renowned clean amp (Twin) actually sounds fantastic overdriven!
