OK, I'm a convert. I had an old Ibanez EQ Pedal that has a level adjust; if you leave the EQ settings flat, you can push the level up for a clean boost.
I plugged it in last night and was floored by the improved feel. Three assumptions i had were destroyed: that an input boost would overdrive the input to the Expression, would make the tone less defined, and would muddy up the Blackface. WRONG!!! The amp doesn't get louder, just more full and with an awesome feel.
Don't knock it till you try it!
I'm going to mount the Ibanez inside the rack case so I can still adhere to my "no pedals" strategy (on the floor anyway), and leave it activated the whole time.
