Aron	Re: Overdriving an old non-master volume Marshall The MiniBooster will BOOST your amp and provide distortion of its own - but it's a booster so your amp will be loud too. The Varidrive - high voltage tube - if you get the right one (try more than one if you can), will give you lots of great tone with sustain. The HotCake - slightly buzzy but good buzz - works will in Trainwreck amps and most amps in general. I like my Shaka 3 but you gotta build it - in some amps it doesn't sound too good (mostly extremely bright amps - most pedals won't sound good either anyway). Aron
