Beautifully Broken
If I were gigging like this all the time, I might consider the modeling aspect.
Id probably go easy like I said earlier, and do flyrig and a wah. Maybe a powered cab for monitoring.
But i'm not gigging much and I really don't want to part with my tube tone live.
Tone was great, just a bit strident on bridge, But I generally don't like non A2 bridge buckers with that amp, so that's could be it. It's less about the guitar, and more about 'choosing the right gear for teh application'.
I have a friend who uses a FlyRig2. Sounds really good. If I remember correctly, and I rarely do, he ran it direct to the PA and also into a small combo amp which he used for his monitor. Really small stage bar gigs.
