Nope. Great through a Dual Recto, Peavey 5150 too. Even plenty of JCM800 and TS users too.
A recto on the orange channel in vintage mode with a ts engaged is pretty much the exact tone on every single one of my favorite 2000s albums lol
 
Ts is that little bit that pushes most high gain amps into perfection. If your amp doesnt need tightening, then it does nothing good. My current amp, all the ts does is add noise. Doesnt tighten, so i am not running a boost. I have a klone coming i will try with it and report back
 
Never owned one? Then you are a cheap (and old) sob like many of us. Rather than paying 200 for a modded original, try the cheapo Joyo pedal for 35 bucks and it will get you close enough.
 
my screamer that wayne built me is amazing. just does everything great. My favorite boost ever. and i LOVE that paul your playing.... :love:
Thank you! It started out life as a purple sparkle but was sort of fuschia, then I hung it in dormer window for a few years. Now it's pink! Some guy offered me ridiculous money for it but I'm keeping it. Thinking about dropping some alnico II's in it.
 
I've still never owned a tubescreamer either


I guess the sort of closest thing that I do own is the Maxon Sonic Distortion
That was my first real pedal and mine was Ibanez branded. They nailed this one in the POD go!
