Adding the patch cable from one circuit to the other adds a gain stage, which is exactly what a distortion pedal does :) it’s like pre-amping twice. A lovely amp - but I’d like to know more about the custom ‘Mercer’ amp too!

I’ll have to do a video on that! It’s a vibrolux circuit I know that.

Dude … I’m much more interested in your double cutaway Les Paul jr. and, not to be a stickler, don’t you have a Shins’ lp to finish up ?

Yknow what’s funny about that guitar. I don’t remember how I got it! I was having a lot of fun early on and… well then I had a Les Paul. I literally don’t have a clue. Kinda scary!
