I was putting my Herbert back together after doing the NFB mod and re-tubing. Decided to see how close to a stock 800 I could get. It was a bit difficult to tone match having to switch manually. I think it does pretty convincing stock 800 tones. Not quite there but good enough.

I think I will try boosting both the 2- and 800 compared to the 2+

 
Herbert sounds fatter in the low mids and I can tell it has that thicker feel to the single notes. But overall pretty close.

Where did you set the NFB on Herbert to get closest?
 
It's amazing how many of these modern amps seem to trace their ancestry to Marshalls.
