How to clean up amp when you roll back volume on guitar

[tunesmarone 0]

Which amp model best cleans up when I roll the volume back on my guitar? I typically use the treadplate model for high gain but I miss the ability to clean up my gain simply by rolling back my volume on my guitar. I miss that from my tube amp...

High gain amps typically do not clean up very well when lowering the volume of the guitar, the best amps to go from distorted to clean in response to volume changes are instead the mid gain ones, like the Marshall JTM-45 or the Plexi, or others in the same category.

Ok thank you. I'll definitely try that and maybe stick a tube screamer in front for leads.

In my experience with POD HD, the amp models clean up nicely using the guitar volume. But, when you use on of the modeled distortion or overdrive pedals from the POD HD the guitar volume is useless. Try just the amp model, without stompboxes.
