      @@metalfan7270 something i saw Greg Cerwonka from Take Offense do, try heavily scooping the mids on your amp then run through a tube screamer or SD-1 and a graphic EQ with the mids bumped up. you basically completely nuke your mids with the amp's EQ and add the OD to get that "tight" sound, then you surgically add in just the mids needed to cut through in a mix with the EQ pedal. worked for him and his tone is killer.

    The clean tone that always satisfies me when I’m in a mood where nothing sounds great to me is a Strat into a Blackface Fender with “too much” reverb, at least much more than I’d ever use at a gig. That reverb soaked BF Strat sound is the one tone that no matter what my mood or if I’m feeling burnt out it sounds good. Especially in the 2 and 4 positions.

      @@MatthewScottmusic Eh, I'm not really such a fan of it.
      Okay, okay, alright....
      I'll admit that plugging a Strat into a blackface reverb amp is definitely among the most satisfying tones in the galaxy...top 3 anyway.
      😁
      However, if/when I happen to need a little "air", I *personally* prefer a smidge of analog delay more than any reverb... particularly and especially within a live band context for sure!
      You know...just a li'l slapback.
      ;)
      So, while I DO recognize the wonderful fulfillment of the lush Fender 'verb, it just doesn't work for me in all scenarios.
      Again, that's just my personal preference.
