i don't like high gain in the traditional sense but i like to be able to shape the attack of notes and chords from smooth to edgy,
and i do love the touch sensitivity and sustain of higher gain levels. holdsworth describes exactly how i feel about gain in his interviews. like the benefits of gain in the legato sustain and bloomy sense without the fizzy compressed metal pigeon hole tone.
my 3 channel carol ann dream would be od2r clean with an independent sparkle/bright type switch just for the clean channel, a dirty channel that was hyper gtr volume knob sensitive for JTM clean into brownish crunch, with a footswitchable mid boost switch for a bit more of an ac30 pedal platform option if desired, and finally channel 3 doing the joe b./ej type elastic dynamic lead sound carol ann is famous for.
