[QUOTE="kc2eeb, post: 144236, member: 811"] I think the "problem" with the MTS line is that the gain control on the modules can be turned way past the point of tube saturation so it doesn't really react much to the player's soft or light attack on the strings because ANY signal from the guitar will flat top the signal and it all sounds the same i.e. "no feel." Couple that with the tendency to leave the level control relatively low and not raise the power amp master much it can sound like a big "fuzz box." Backing off the module gain, raising the module level AND the power amp master allows the player to "dial in" the point of break up and response to a soft or heavy attack on the strings. A lot of amps set the limits by design so the player can't make it "sound bad." Personally, I prefer to make the choices myself. [/QUOTE]
