Amp/Cab-- Guitar/Pickups

lol Yes, the rig has voltage surge protection. It's the amp's-- when they're turned up loud that uses the power, the routing/fx rack rig-- not so much

I've never really had issues w/ Boss pedals in the series fx loop of an amp. Best of luck getting things sorted out

Casually looking around and saw the title and burst into hysterical laughter.

Replace the 12ax7 tube that runs the loop

Now you can. You know me. And you definitely know who the Edge, Steve Vai, Van Halen, Steve Lukather, Dan Huff, Larry Carlton, Robben Ford, Michael Landau, Allan Holdsworth, and just about every other guitarist from the 80's, Yngwie Malmsteen, John Petrucci, Joe Satriani, Neal Schon, Peter...

Each cabinet is 16, or 4 in mono, and 8 Ohms in stereo

Phase 90 is not ideally suited for use in a loop, imo.

The reason EVERY gigging player should have a Ground fault tester in their bag of stuff
