Yup. high watt. people seem to prefer it for the DS and LS. LS is only 20 watts, not even 40.

I dont know details of DS but the LS is capable of some very nice sparkly fenderish cleans and has decent headroom and the high watt probably helps with that and then with high gain it holds up nice.

I have an old eminence red fang 65 watt i think might sound perfect in a LS. sorta like a celestion gold which is definitely a favorite of mine.

i have a dozen speakers sitting here from swapping out. ive started building extension cabs for my other combos but have been thinking of building some cabinets specifically for new amp heads as i have not had a head/cab since the early 90s.

my last head was an 80s fender twin reverb II - the Rivera designed amp. never should have sold that. but whoa that was heavy. I was 20 and could barely move it and carried it to so many parties in college...up and down those stairs, drunk, with a 4x12 cab on wheels....sold it in 98 and never bought another head and cab again. now, they are so compact and light if that is what you want.....nice for live back up because you can easily transport 2 of them. The friedmans are so small and compact,..and those Orange Tiny Terror series heads are killer, cheap and so light

if i am to be honest with myself i i have to accept i need to sell some stuff, stop looking and buying and just save the $$$ to buy the Two Rock that i really want and be done with it all instead of chasing and compromising

all i do is dream guitar stuff. very hard to get any work done
