+ 1 man, i reckon boredom was one of the man factors in mine

EMG 81 -->HM2-->MZ2-->Big muff-->DSL 401 on light overdrive

the thing was, i liked how it sounded until you went to try a palm mute, which muffs won't do... it was like radio feedback tuned to a note

i dont know about hi gain not muffling your mistakes though. I almost always play clean/light amount of gain out of my TS9 and i find i need to focus alot on being as clean as possible in my fingerings. I figure that's because im used to playing with clean/low distortion, so when i do put on the high gain, it's really easy to play stuff fast.
ie-back in high school, we used to have this jam session every thursday. I was figuring out some lynard skynard licks off memory and i couldn't pull them off right away. I switched on the gain on the amp and it sounded perfect when i was playing quite sloppy in reality.

i dont like the overall tone of the line6 insane. i perfer the spinal puppet and the soldano to both. that is one mean tone machine

I've played my share of high gain beasts:

• Diezel Herbert
• Rivera KHR & KH2
• Double & Triple Rectos
• Soldano

and to be honest it's not very exciting to me any more. I'd rather get a full and ballsy tone like on Van Halen 1 than the muddy/buzzy (IMHO) tone of most modern high gain amps. Of the list above, the only one I dig is Soldano (used to own a HR50 and currently own a Decatone). The others don't work for the types of tones I prefer.

More gain generally makes me go crazy and do all sorts of crazy things with your fingers and the tremelo arm and feedback. Im just talking about excessive amounts tho.
