sorry, should add...
I mean in the "Buy this pedal to make your amp sound like a '59 Bassman"
I have never figured out what the amp you need to use to get the "'59 Bassman" sound as any amp is surely going to sound like a amp running through another amp.
Even if you had the best sounding '59 Bassman ever and then mic'ed it up through the best sounding AC30, I doubt it would sound like the '59 Bassman on it's own. they all add their own flavour.
BUT, if you use the pedal and like the tone through your amp ..... THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS!
I am sure you could get some cool tones out of it.
As a dirt pedal it's cool, adds a nice grind to the sound.
Don't get me wrong I am a fan of modeling technology and have been mainly frustrated in getting the models to sound right. I gave up with guitar amps, for modeling, and have found FAR better results in running the modelers direct into the PA. I found I get a more true representaion of what you would expect through a PA, than through a guitar amp.
I spent six months looking for an amp to match my PodXT Live about 4 years ago. Tried all sorts of guitar amps only to find the PA was the way to go. Went against all my instincts.
