I noted this already with the British 70s model and trying to use an overdrive with it.

However I've since tried to use my Big Muff with this amp, and the only settings it really works on are the really clean ones. I thought something was wrong with the pedal at first as I was getting something of a volume drop when engaged, but when I turned the gain way down on these models, it worked better. However I have to turn the gain WAY down.

Want a Smashing Pumpkins tone, with your Muff running into a JCM800 model? Tough $@!&, can't do that with the Mustangs.

This is really frustrating. You cannot use pedals with these amps, not unless you actually want your distorted tones to be louder than your cleans and getting a bit of grit/warmth from the amp.

I have a Devi Ever Soda Meiser Fuzz on the way to use with my Marshall Class 5. I also have a Mustang 3 at home. I'll try the Fuzz with the Mustang too. I would assume it would work OK on a clean amp model but maybe not? I'll give it a try and post the results.

I have that pedal too. I'll try it with the Mustang but it's not going to be any different.

Fuzzes should work into a dirty amp anyway.
