Thanks henrik, well stated.. You have a point, i think what is messing me up is how horrid the zoom g2 sounds through the fender compared to the mesa boogie roadster.. Then again that coincides with what you said, comparing a fender princeton 112 to mesa roadster is like comparing justin bieber to iron maiden. Ones smaller, less complex/talented, and overall mediocre in comparison.

My solution may just be to roll with the processor and if it sounds bad ill just upgrade amp ASAP. Isnt like the line 6 will go to waste!
