If you use clean amps, stop using FX loops

just run a spring reverb into the front of any old amp for that vibe

[Gone Fission]

Pre-64 the reverb was an outboard unit, not part of the amp itself. The 90s Custom Shop Vibro King and Dual Professional basically had the 6G15 outboard reverb built into the amp as the first part the guitar hit.

I only use filthy amplifiers. What do I do?

I only use a filthy coffee tin containing a small mustachioed man who listens to the notes I play and then verbalizes them in what I believe is Portuguese. What do I do?

When using mustachioed men in the signal chain no preamp is used, just a primp.
If you underfeed signal to the mustachioed, the primp turns to a scrimp.
If you overload the circuit by not using the effects loo you end up with either
a simp or a gimp.

Good luck!

If your amp doesn’t have an fx loop you don’t have to use one or not use one. Checkmate

you don't have an amp if your checkmate doesn't use one loop to fx one or not have use.

Make your own FX loop by cutting wires and attaching them to jacks!

I find this thread silly and rather pointless.
You use the gear you need and use it how it best suits what you need, not everyone on the world is or wants to be a edgy indie guitarist trying to push the limits that were pushed over and tramped decades ago.

your are obviously not as a good a musician as woolworm bet you are one of those posers who play a 7 string bass

[retinal orbita]

My amp doesn’t even HAVE an effects loop (maybe it does? Who looks at the back?) and I only play a 6 string bass so I am 6/7ths the musician Blackened Soul is.
