Please excuse the ignorance, I am a 35 year acoustic player but now want to learn something about electrics. So I bought a v1 Lonestar.
I read that I have to overdrive the power tubes to make "real" melody style sounds. My question is if I turn the master volume right up (say 8) but have the channel volume down for home playing (say 2) am I loading the power tubes?
Its easy to fiddle the gain and drive to overload the preamp but I was hoping to work on the power tubes without YADT (yet another divorce threat).
TIA
