Not a backing track or multi fx pedal in sight

Could be that I'm just getting old.....
Tasty playing! I normally run my Les Paul straight into a cranked Marshall type amp, and the Telecaster into a Fender/Vox type amp, either clean or on the edge of breakup.

FX is for used for variation, or when you are trying to get a specific sound. The FX pedals are usually run into a clean amp.

For something like this you definitely need FX pedals ..
