Agreed. My Mesa D800+ / WD-800 has me covered there.
And if I go ampless, I'm certainly considering a Broughton RFE (which I have!).

Thanks! I actually was thinking about both of your suggestions.
At the moment, both of those pedals are on other boards.
Hmm.
Worth-a-shot!
@SemiDriven Is that board pretty much for "toan" or do you need any "effects" in there as well? Just wondering which direction to go for pedal suggestions. My instinct is that it's the former!
Toan!
I'm thinking about effects, but then again, I'm not sure I wanna go there with this board.
I'm leaning towards a bread & butter / meat & potatoes kinda-board.
How about something along the lines of a JPTR Jive, in front of the preamps, to hit them with a little juice if you wanna coax a hint of breakup out of either of them? I always like having, for reasons expected or otherwise, a "more louder" pedal on my board. Having owned a '67 B-18 for over a decade, I know full well how those sound when you hit them with some juice while they're already running close to the edge! I liked it very much indeed
You can still pre order the bass jive right now, i can't imagine it will be open much longer.How about something along the lines of a JPTR Jive, in front of the preamps, to hit them with a little juice if you wanna coax a hint of breakup out of either of them?

I'll check out the JPTR Jive. Who doesn't like a little more juice going into sweetness?!How about something along the lines of a JPTR Jive, in front of the preamps, to hit them with a little juice if you wanna coax a hint of breakup out of either of them?

FWIW, I did try the TubeDRV > GS and that certainly added a rather nice element of boost / dirty boost into the mix
(ran out of time to try it on the board in question).
My Nobelium has started making small random crackling noises, and those come just occasionally...
I did a breakdown of my board, so I know it's from the Nobelium.
Tube damage I guess? Time to find a new set of 12au7 's?
It gets played every day and goes out at least two times a week. Should I take special precautions with a tube driven pedal?
I'm absolutely loving the Nobelium !

I personally use low gain tubes in everything, cause I want clean tones; 12aU7 gain-related (there are more tubes out there which share gain likeness than those of the same 12a nomenclature...)
with that said, here are two interesting infographics I came across on a hifi forum:

mine does this too. I'm pretty sure its the (volume or tone) pots, so try turning it up and down a couple hundred times and see if it stops. worked for me for a while. also happened on two of my finallys.
