I did my entire practice with my amp's gain. Being a Fender/Roland guy I usually get gain from a pedal even with my Marshall. I liked it...I feel a bit dirty. I think I am going to run the Marshall this way, it works with our set.

So a Fender guy buys a Marshall

There's times when the compression and hard clipping of pedals feels right and times when you want a touch sensitive gainy rock amp, both are proven great ways to get results!
Don't worry about your rig she called and said you guys are in an open relationship now whatever that means

I'm "stuck" with a Blackstar . I was after a Fender Princeton reverb, but the neighbor meth-heads stole all my savings.
But I'll survive. A good Fender, with a mid-rangey, good OD pedal infront; will "easily" do Marshall stuff aswell!
rock on \m/

EDIT: My uncle's Fender Blues JR. does that "clean, slightly overdriven" tone SO much better than my Blackstar. But I got a superb clean, clean channel- and foot switchable OD channel; that gives me LOADS of gain .
Only issue is a 200hz "woof" and maybe not enough... "character".. especially with the onboard digital reverb.
Digital.. ouch.. :/
but I will SURVIVE!, lol!
-EIf somethings important- send a PM. I might be offline for long periods. Rock on!!!

I love Marshall tones. I get mine from my Vox AV30 amp (an analog modeler of sorts). Kept going back and forth between the 2 Marshall voicings (JMP vs JCM800) and Soldano for the band I'm in now and settled with the 800 sound. I've got the gain up around 5 or 6 for some decent drive and use an OD-3 or Soul Food to give me more. Right now the OD is winning between the two overdrives but they are set quite differently so both are staying for now. For the clean tones I roll the guitar volume back a little and turn on the compressor. Works perfectly.
