DAVID FRANKS, GUITARIST READER:

I’d like to build a pedalboard that plugs straight into the PA (that is, without also using an amp) for gigs. I don’t want to use a modelling multi-effects unit like Helix or Kemper, as I love my pedal collection too much… How can I get realistic amp and cabinet tones/capability onto my portable pedalboard in a tonally authentic way that works with my existing pedals (a Klon KTR Centaur, a Friedman BE-OD, a Fulltone Mini-Deja’Vibe, a Free The Tone Tri Avatar Chorus and a Boss DD-3)? I normally play into a Fender Hot Rod DeVille, but I’m finding it hard to lug about, hence the question!
