A fully Pedalboard based Amp setup?

[Hollow]

After 5 years, this plan is finally coming to fruition!

Finally played a Bluguitar Amp 1 last week and ordered my own Mercury edition today.

I did this back in the eighties with a Yamaha REX50 processor, a midi foot controller and a 100w/side stereo power amp all in my board. No other pedals. This was my first all digital rig.....on todays standards the drive sounds were a bit sterile but no-one - not even my peers in other bands - ever criticised the tone!

Since then Ive done similar things with powered cabinets and units like the Sans-amp character pedals. I have the Blonde pedal and its a pretty good Fender tone. I think a couple of other forumites have had this type of setup.

Of course my current rig is perfection!

Ah, the Rex50. I used this straight to a power amp too. It was the DBs back in the day. Squelchy buttons!

I used to run my pedalboard this way with a power amp on my pedalboard. It was super convenient for gigs. I made custom 10m speaker cables.

I still have the same setup, I just keep the poweramp on top of the cab and away from beer spills.

Whoops just realised when the initial post was.

Ah well, adds to my post count.

I'm sure the Bluguitar is good, but to answer your 5 year old question yes I have tried something and it works.

I would like to replace the vox+cab link with a quilter, but I'm in no rush.

I've been rocking the simplifier for around a year with good results too. So much easier just turning up with a pedalboard.
