    I think no pedal can sound like a real tweed amp. At least I've never tried such a pedal.
    The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

    Yes, of course. But these look pretty interesting. If I keep my Concert, I would like to get some breakup earlier on the volume knob, rather than the current breakup point at about 7 on the dial. if it has some tweed flavor, all the better. Was thinking one of these might help load up the amp with some break up and tweed warmth at lower volumes. Not thinking it would turn my amp into a tweed though.
