Lets talk Marshall Plexi Leads/Superleads

[univalve]

Got a 50W Plexi like 1987x and a THD Hotplate. You can get some of those distorted sounds without totally destroying your ear drums.

Hotplate are really good for this application. Just do not try the bedroom level stuff with them (=too much attenuation) - that castrates your sound.

Yes, you should worry. Supers can often exceed 120 or even 150 real watts when cranked. Go for a 50 watter or strap a safe attenuator if you're gonna wind it all the way up.
