Nope, my effects loop is just the standard, non-switchable version.

I considered getting a custom 2-channel "Loucks Hammer" or "Super Loucks" but it's a shared EQ and I've always gotten better results with single channel amps honestly, keep the circuit nice and straightforward. I did get a boost option tho, adds an extra gain stage so between that and pedals it's versatile in a single channel format.

I do kinda regret not getting a footswitchable spring reverb for the hell of it but I manage just fine.

Sweet, good to know that it should work great.

I agree with the single channel mentality, when using pedals I only use one channel. Less circuitry in the amp means less tone loss and less to break, plus less to accidentally be nudged wrong before a set. Mine has 2 boosts, one for the preamp and one for the power amp. I can't wait to try those out with some all ready dimed gain going into it. :yay:

Hmmm, I don't think I've seen a Verellen with built in spring reverb. That would have been cool.

Yeah, those dual boosts will add some serious heft I'm betting. The Loucks, much like my Dwarvenaut, sounds so good running it in a med gain, moderate breakup setting. Then add a fuzz pedal, then add the boost (or vice versa), then hang onto your hat. :thumb:

I've only seen one Verellen with spring verb myself, dude who owned it said that verb went deep.

Accept your eccentricities and go with them.

The Coop has built in spring reverb. I imagine that amp doesn't sell as well as his other amps though as I've only seen a few people with them.

Oh right, always forget about the Coop. 50W of classic American tonez via Verellen plus spring verb. Gotta sound sick!

I feel like the older design single stomp soundblox pedals are a bit clunky.

A rehouse may be in order.

Just bought stuff to redo my Jazz bass that's been sitting at my mom's house for the better part of 6-8 months. New black single ply pick guard, black metal control plate, black aluminum knob, and black anodized lace aluma-J bridge pickup. Stoked!!!
