Amps that pair well with the Dunlop MXR Distortion Plus

shapes the dynamic responseShapes how the tone responds to picking dynamics rather than its frequency or gain. (dynamic → compressed)

Dunlop MXR Distortion Plus leans this dynamic tone toward compressed, which it doesn't make on its own

shapes the dynamic responseShapes how the tone responds to picking dynamics rather than its frequency or gain. (dynamic → compressed)

Run Dunlop MXR Distortion Plus into that dynamic platform and it finally leans toward compressed

Comes later in the signal chain

gain stackingStacks two gain stages for more saturation than either produces alone. (mid-forward → high gain)

Push the VH4's tight, huge gain further by stacking the Distortion Plus's warm, compressed clipping in front for extra saturation.

shapes the dynamic responseShapes how the tone responds to picking dynamics rather than its frequency or gain. (high headroom → compressed)

Dunlop MXR Distortion Plus's warm voice suits Marshall Lead 20 Model 5002 Amplifier's own bright character

Comes later in the signal chain

pushes an already-dirty tonePushes an already-dirty tone harder and tightens it up. (crunchy → mid-forward)

Dunlop MXR Distortion Plus takes that crunchy character and pushes it toward mid-forward
