Driven Tube Simulation?

I have a PF500. I run an ART Tube MP Project Series from my tuner out to the effects loop in and blend it in with the PF's EQ'd signal using the blend knob. I'm going to experiment with some different tubes, (ECC82 for example), I just copped off TB classifieds. Got the ART the same way, like new, original box and O/M, 45 beans. I have fun tweaking new sounds. Enjoy.
 
I have owned a BBE Hemotoma, an Ebs Micro II, a fulltone mosfet bass drive, a tech 21 bass driver, a tech 21 rbi, VT bass deluxe...nothing came close to my swell b-pro v3 or my frequency central odzilla. Why simulate when you can have the real deal?

I didn't even think of this!! Tried the Tonehammer blended from the tuner out into the effects loops and it was MAGIC!! Played a 3 hour gig turning it off and on thru out the night. It sounds amazing. The AGS circuit is awesome. Really sensitive tho. Still got some tweaking to do but I'm really happy with it. Recorded it with it the other day too. Very fat sound. I dig.
