does NOT do a modern nevermore tone. i used to own one...it's much closer to the mark series, with a tad of rectifier vintage channel thrown in.
sure, there's lots of gain on tap, but while it's not quite as tweakable as the marks it's still really a tweakers amp - which is exactly why i sold it. it sounded different every night, and then going back to a tone that i liked could take quite some time.
for references sake, it did a good job at emulating a nevermore-politics of ecstacy tone.
another thing to know about the DC series is that a road case is a MUST HAVE if you got one of these. especially the graphic EQ sliders are just too flimsy to withstand regular gigging, read: being thrown around in the back of a van.
