Hey there,
I have the 5:50 Express combo, and the amp is extremely versatile, but I find the "black shadow" speaker they have in there to be incredibly fizzy. Just a very harsh and gritty sound, not to my liking. I would like to dive more into the realm of smooth lead tones, like the Eric Johnson violin sound, or Shawn Lane's ribbon-like smooth sound. I need a speaker that can smooth out the harshness. What speaker would you guys recommend that would pair well (and safely! I dont know jack-squat about wattages!) with the amp? Thanks!
