[QUOTE="bduersch, post: 1177, member: 66"] I know what you mean about the non-3-dimensional feel of the GT8. I find the Lexicon to significantly better from a tone & feel perspective... one thing that helps is that if you are not using any pre-FX on the Lexicon, it will run as true bypass, so it is like having the guitar plugged straight into the amp. Even when the pre-FX are engaged, the Lexicon does not seem to load down the pickups as much as the Boss does. (I tend to run the majority of my FX in the FX loop) One factor that may help is that you can set the Lexicon on top of the amp and therefore get away with much shorter cable runs... when I was using the GT8 and the 4-cable method I probably had 60+ feet of cable running between the guitar, GT8, and amp... that can't be good for tone under any circumstances. --B [/QUOTE]
