Do.Not.Get.Me.Started on "need for power amp emulation" in the Synergy world....Then you go down the age old "but I need power amp emulation and there aren't the same amount of gain stages in the Syn stuff so this isn't the same thing?!?!?!?" (as you plug into the Axe wtfever and crap yourself) which is, as you know, stupid.
Yeah, this is ABSOLUTELY the challenge with incorporating anything as "just throw it in the loop for amp modeling". You're either stuck doing proper cable management...and then having to hire furniture movers to help everytime you decide to add a new/different amp device in that loop, or you keep it tidy with a patch bay...which just creates an always-there bungle of patch cables on the patch bay (and costs too much money/real estate/patience to think thru).One more thing on this. I know the Axe drives are
My biggest issue is keeping the flow of cables all from left to right. My "studio desk" with everything on it and a small shelf to the left with amps. I don't want a bunch of back and forth 12CM between whatever amp I am using and the III. I use a ton of the ins and outs on the Axe for giutar synth stuff as well so I would have to do a bunch of reconfig for that and I am too lazy. Plus I have such a great collection of cheap-ass but killer ODs that I want to put them to use
We? "Hmmmm....I guess I MIGHT be able to make the victorian doily thing work with the Badlander aesthetic?"We're going shelf shopping today
Remember heaviest on bottom. And I am absolutely just talking amps right now.

Insta-buy on aesthetics alone. Oof
Yeah the BL is a little cinderblock-ish with the "handcrafted" headshell

I've allowed myself some possible sidetracks; "just in case"Marshall - Tone of the Gods…
Definitely agree that the faceplate, knobs, tolex, handle etc all feel a bit cheap compared to typical Marshall. The issue is, the OG DSL’s were hardly built that well and you still have to deal with the potential of runaway bias drift, poorly serviced boards, old components, and surrender the (very useful) resonance pot. The insanely low price of the 100H kind of balances it out, it has all of the tone still despite the cost cutting.
