Hello Chris,
Sorry this isn't an answer for you but this will interest me too. I have a VGL Hotbird pedal and that didn't sound too good in front of my Boss GT001, it was probably more down to me than anything. I have a Presonus tube preamp and this thread made me wonder about trying that in the chain. Maybe with what you have and what I have we can come up with something -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

Hey guys,
I've got a few of the Hotone heads for my teaching room and I only tried them due to them having fx loops, i've got a micro terror but it doesn't have a loop so lacked a bit of versatilely but they are fun practice amps first and foremost. Check out the Youtube channel 'Guitars Rebellion' he has some great play through's of all the amps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrhVUHQXopk Ignore the mojo diamond unless your after just Fender clean sounds (it does that great), the Purple Wind and Heart Attack are great for rock and crunch sounds. A nice pedal to use in front of your amp for that tube sparkle is the MXR micro amp or TC Electronics Spark Booster, they just push the front of the amp a bit but add a lot of clarity and bite. I personally use the MXR micro amp and its just on all the time. |

I agree with the Micro Amp - it's been on my list for a while, I decided it would be a few bucks cheaper to just build a clone so it's on the to-do list |
