I youtubed the 4100 to justify the tone. The tones are far different... I think the gain on the DSL is alot more clean, as where the gain on the 4100 would be a bit more muddy, or dirty. As far as more gain its hard to say, because the amp can only get so dirty before you lose all of your "sweet" tone and it just becomes noise. To really hear the full dynamics of the amp or what you are playing I would recommend the DSL.

As of in general question and answer form I would
pry tell you the DSL had more gain then the 4100.

But when you fall in love with an amp you tend to stick with it!!! :beerme
