re: Amp Recs: Fender Champion vs. Marshall CODE

I have the Fender Champion 100, been playing it several times a week for over a year. Clean tones are superb, as close to a Twin as I've ever heard with a solid state amp. The on-board effects are pretty good, but the overdrive can get a bit "fizzy" for my taste. I prefer the "Blackface" settings with a Danelectro Pride of Texas pedal for more drive. It's surprsingly powerful, with a ton of headdroom.
I've played around with a Code a couple of times, it just seemed pretty thin sounding. I couldn't crank it, maybe it's better with more volume.
ETA...I played a Code combo, I'm sure the head/cab is much better.
