Hi CT owners, I was wondering what you guys use as a volume boost for leads without having to set up a whole new patch with a different volume. Tried the effects loop with a cleanbooster pedal but all it did was overdrive the amp and cause unwanted distortion. Thanks

Can't help on the volume pedals, but a boost pedal should be on the input chain, not on the effects loop. Try and see if that helps.

Thanks guys , I have tried a boost in the input and it too causes an overload at the front of the amp. Oh well, thanks for the tips.
