Saved me from posting the same idea.

Having played Strats for the majority of my life, when I started playing my Les Paul through my DSL100H, I definitely had to readjust my picking. I guess I developed a habit of "digging in" with my Strat. But with the LP/Marshall, I had to back off and let the guitar and amp do the singing - a different kind of singing at that. So different tools for different purposes.

I do love that bright and twangy Strat bridge pickup though. That through a FuzzFace with the guitar volume rolled down a bit: :love: .
