It also depends upon the location of the EQ in the circuit. My old Gibson's EQ was pre-gain, meaning that I in a medium-gain situation I could roll up the mids and hear them enter distortion. Lovely. Marshall EQs are typically post-gain, so you are simply EQ-ing the results of whatever gain you've selected.
