10. I Use...

...my Tele into a Boogie, with a Boss Acoustic Simulator. That pedal does NOT make an electric sound like an acoustic, but allows me to hollow out the mids rather dramatically. Then with bass pretty low on the amp, it's all shimmering high end. I do have the amp gain on 1.
My full roar tone is a Satriani series Ibanez (with a DiMarzio FRED in the bridge) into the Boogie or my Marshall with gain and 10. Then, for leads, I hit the boost, which gives 6dB of loudness & around rdB more gain, so the odd harmonics cut even harder.
Geez, for jam nights I had a Voc Saturator so I could use somebody else's amp set clean, and still get that Satch tone. I never used it in my own band, but always for jam nights.
Those 2 tones are my go-to.
