Hi,
whether you like the sound of the amp is completely personal and a matter of
taste. I have a (slightly modded) 135 twin and am reasonbly satisfied.
Hell, some people like solid states, and I heard that a friend of my sisters
friend knows somebody who likes Marshalls!
If you like it go for it. but a one on one swap seems to be a rotten deal. I
cant speak for the states, but in Europe, if both in reasonable shape, I'd
say 2 and half 135W to one 65RI seems to be the reasonable deal.
my 2 cents
