I heard a guy one time using analog OD pedals (fulltone) through a Tech 21 amp, and he was going direct out from the amp into the PA. The OD sounded pretty darn good, and the clean's weren't bad either. Definitely not instantly recognizable as a modeled sound.
I guess my question is, has anybody had similar success? I'm interested in picking up an amp like this just to use in those situations where I know I'm going to have to go direct into a PA. I play a tele and I want to stay as close as possible to a warm, analog bassman sound, so I'm thinking I would try the new version of the Menatone Dirty Blonde pedal along with it. I would basically have 2 Dirty Blondes, with one set to just about clean and one set to medium overdrive. I would have one on at all times.
Think this would work?
