Marshall Power EL34 100\100 amp as pedal platform ?

Danny1969

Ignoring the line level needed to get full power (nobody needs full power from one of these) what do people think of using the power amp as a pedal platform, would the lack of tone controls be a prob ? 

And next question is what pre amp pedal would sound killer, a Bogner Ecstasey Red or similar ?

Surely tone controls from the pedal could compensate if there's enough travel and if they're voiced like preamps. There are people running AMT / Poweramp solutions, maybe @digitalscream has had some experience here?

The HT Metal should easily drive the bllx off the Marshall. It uses 2x15 volt split supplies.

Verellen Skyhammer Preamp in front...or the Meatsmoke...ideal combo!
