Wow- I keep discovering new tone secrets with this LSC! I did a gig this past Friday in a pretty small bar ... and I had to turn down lower than desired. It was a bummer - my "bouncy" clean became mildy distorted because I was overdriving the output (gain 2:00 - master 11:00 but output 10:00)
Today I found that if I run the amp more "wide open" - gain 2:00 - master 11:00 and output 12:00 I can turn my strat's volume down to 4 or 5 and my headroom is back! I do have to up the treble & presence to taste since the highs get rolled off doing this - but I'm excited to have the headroom at low volumes.
Maybe most of you guys knew this already, but I never expected my strat could sound good with the volume set so low. VERY cool.
