in general, it's like what is described in the ad - Fat Stack, very typical Marshall kinda lead tones. I would say it sounds like 80s rock guitar with distortion.. thick and sweet. (it is nowhere near a great tube amp though) Between that there's a Range control for the midrange though, so there's a plethora of sounds you can dial in to, be it Motley Crue, Guns 'n Roses... you can even dial in to Modern distortion settings, or scoop/lower the mids/bass/treble for your own sound.
i haven't tried an LP with it but I suspect it'll be fabulous.
i play with a strat mainly in a l'arc en ciel cover band nowadays, so i try to keep my Gain low and let the strat sound shine out more during solos. I mainly control the gain through my guitar volume knob.. if I would be playing Judas Priest i would set the volume at 10 for rhythm and solo to really get a more "in your face" distortion.
