Precision drive works great for me for just that Similar pedals are the timmy and bad monkey

They can sometimes sound cool but compared to a marshall they sound a bit fuzzy and boxy. If you know a good amp modder there are a few simple tweaks to make to make them a juicy boosted 800

Depends on the year of the 800, later ones have different operating voltages and filtering. Most prefer the early 800 = JMP config

Get your amp fitted with a proper loop then your idea will work well. Might work well anyway if the cables are short enough or you use a buffer close to the fx send

Accountants. The 16 ohm winding on the transformer requires the most wire. This makes the wire cost go up, and usually the former cost go up as it needs to be bigger to fit the extra wire.

I settled on the precision drive with my green stripe, pretty aggressive combination though.

That ... is a wild statement

Crank the trim pot up. It's more boost but limited by the voltage headroom. It'll start farting when you go too high, and be aware bass notes require more headroom, so maybe tune it with the all the low end in.

The standout has a hugh amount of boost.. and the filters are great, clean blend is great. I make it sound the same as my ts9, TCIP, or way different. I dunno, sounds like yours are broken?

what the actual fuck is all of that... being high as fuck and soldering a whole bunch of shit together is the only logical explanation

Good times. Do you still have that amp?

Who wouldnt want one of these in their backline?

Yes the unused power amp will still need a load/speaker attached to it. Anyime a power amp is powered it needs a load.

It wont be a ground loop, the ground is still connected with the fx loop disengaged so switching it in/out wouldnt make a difference if it was a ground loop.

If it's not the second tube then it's probably the channel switch relay causing that

It's a full frequency boost on fifth gain stage and a bit more top end/treble from the lead circuit. No bass cutting but you can turn the gain down a bit, which makes bright cap more prominent and maybe seem like a bass cut.

yeah other way around. The gain knob on the V and jp2c is the lead drive control on the earlier marks

Ive just picked up an evh 412 and agree with this. The cab sounds a bit darker than a marshall gb 412 but same mids. Would that be the larger cab or speaker variation?

Only the input gain has a bright cap on the control The lead bright/switch effect is not affected by the lead gain control

The cool thing about boosting a mark (or lots of other amps) is you can lower the gain dial which makes the bright cap do more. Can shift the voicing of the tone in an interesting direction sometimes without necessarily giving mroe gain overall.
