Played it with distortion last night - Rolling a lot of treble off still. I need to roll off treble or it starts to grate on my ears after a few minutes. Covered pickup, Tone on '7'. Treble all the way down, presence all the way down gain down 2 on the preset. EV's in thiele cabs - bottom end is pretty big on those.
Sounds really nice that way - more of a Knopfler humbucker tone. No wah in the chain, just a compressor turned off. Got to convince myself I don't need that +2 position. :)
Perhaps I'll try a tube driver or parametric EQ in the chain next time - something that will fatten mids. Oddly enough, I've never owned a tube screamer. LOL.
