i have actually used a gain pedal in front of a boogie w it on a clean channel just to get a different type of gain out of it. w the right pedal it can work very well. |
I have never read anywhere that he has (or seen) a tube screamer in front of a TRIAXIS in Petrucci's rig. I know that Hammet uses or did use one in front of his Boogie Mk II C+, but I don't think JP ever did or needed too. That RED 1 Channel has more gain than anyone could ever possibly need before the whole thing turns into a mess. I know there are a lot of Youtube links to JP's gear. Let us know where you found this.
