Solid State
I love it. Not because it’s the greatest pre-amp in the world, but because it is enough for most applications and you don’t have to take out a mortgage to get one. It’s transparent and, for me, makes you focus more on HOW you are getting your sounds into the box. It’s not going to help you or hurt you- it puts tone in your hands… is that a bad thing?

Delay
with this clip you I think you can really hear how a subtle use of a fine delay pedal, such as electro harmonix’s illustrious memory man, can absolutely add a layer of power, depth and interest to any guitar solo… an alternative to “more distortion!!!”
