just returned from watching a few old boys jamming in a pub, playing a tele, some bass and a cahon, what caught my eye was the tele was playing through one of those little red pods straight into the pa, the bass was in a small behringer amp and the cahon was miced into the pa, the pa was an old battered thing but the tones of these guys was amazing, especialy the tele player. Not saying this setup would work with a band with drummer but was refreshing to see and hear such a full sound from basic kit and no guitar amps.....ps not gonna get rid of my amps but made me think.

I still love my old V2 POD - they are dirt cheap so don't hurt the old GAS account that much.
The JCM 800 and Treadplate (Recto) are fantastic but my fave thing by far is the in-built FX algorithms. The delay in particular sounds perfect through a steroe PA.
Same here with my Kemper.
The POD is still in the bag for backup though

I've not had a GAS attack since August last year, fell to the allure just yesterday.
Has Pedal PSU on the way. Does that count or am I let off with just a minor incident report?
