Can folks in here tell me the difference in tone between the overdrive sections of the Galaxie (OD Channel) and the new Mazerati GT? I have a choice of buying one or the other.
Thanks.

I own a Galaxie and have played on the Mazeratie GT several times (mainly through Z-Best 2x12 cabs). I have limited knowledge of the GT, but the sounds I got out of it were great. It was very touch responsive, it cleaned up pretty well and it was very LOUD! Wow is it loud!
The OD channel of the Galaxie is agressive, but didn't seem to have quite the same type of gain as the GT. It seems to have a bit more low end thump but perhaps a tiny bit less sustain. However, they are both great sounding and not worlds apart from each other tonally.
The best advice:
You gotta sit down and play them both through the cabinet you plan to use. If you want a little more flexibility (channel switching, broader EQ) the Galaxie might be right. If you want a high gain monster, the GT might be right. Both are great amps- I chose the Galaxie.
