I'm having a heck of a time getting good distortion patches. I use my HD 500 with a JTV59. I get great acoustic sounds and some of the clean sounds are okay. When I play live, I use a Bose L1. The acoustics sound great, the clean electric's are okay, but the distorted electrics just don't sound very good to me.
I try and dial them in while running through the Bose and it just takes me a long time.
Was curious- When you guys are dialing in your sounds, do you recommend headphones or using whatever live system you use?
