Trey and his use of 2 tubescreamers

[mike-o]

Has he always used two tubescreamers for his crunch and lead tones?  I know this is pretty unpractical, especially when he was using a CAE 3+ preamp which has gnarly and natural clean, crunch, and lead tones on it's own.  Also I know when he was using the Fenders he had a footswitch for the amp's clean an OD.  So how does he use the 2 tubescreamers?  Is one of them purely for sustain or something?  I can't imagine that sounding good, but I can't deny his badass lead tones.  His Great Went guitar tones make my mouth water.

And it looks like he's running that single-channel (with no boost) preamp into the Mesa's power section now, leading me to believe that he truly does rely on the tubescreamers for his channel changing.  Thoughts?

yes the analog man silver mods make them work better togeather and reduce the "pedal sound" on a regular TS 9.. he keeps one on all the time @ low crunch usually (but from what i understand has been know to change settings depending on bands etc) and then the second one is kicked on to kick it up a notch..to me its brilliant as it keeps the tone true regardless of the amount of OD he is going with.. if i were you i would look at www.analogman.com (tube screamer page) and just get your google on to read more..
