I'm not entirely sure on how the clean and dirty loop work, what with one Jack and all?
Can anyone enlighten me?

TRS Jack for both the send and return. You'd need a stereo-to-dual-mono cable, like this one...[url="http://www.soundsliveshop.com/p/Hosa_STP-203_3m_Stereo_Jack_to_Dual_Mono_Jack_Y-Cable/HOSA-STP203?CAWELAID=1830895747&CAGPSPN=pla&catargetid=1831862285&cadevice=c&cagpspn=pla&gclid=CMrfhYnPsL0CFQ_HtAodeF8ASw"]http://www.soundsliveshop.com/p/Hosa_STP-203_3m_Stereo_Jack_to_Dual_Mono_Jack_Y-Cable/HOSA-STP203?CAWELAID=1830895747&CAGPSPN=pla&catargetid=1831862285&cadevice=c&cagpspn=pla&gclid=CMrfhYnPsL0CFQ_HtAodeF8ASw[/url]

Commonly known as insert cables, as the send/return jacks on mixers and rack gear often use TRS jacks like this too. There are right angled versions in existence too:

Tried one in GAK last w/e. Couldn't get it to a light dist sound. It seemed to be either 'sound like Billy' whatever I set it to, or off. So a bit 'meh' for me on the tryout I had and I could not justify to cost for what I want.

That's interesting (ignore my pic, it's from 3 years ago... ;) haha! My last couple posts on BC have been too fanboyish, gulp! ) as I found for my uses, even maxed out I couldn't get the amount of drive I wanted, though I'm feeling that it's more the 'character' of the drive I wasn't totally happy with. Maybe with a hot signal and a booster in front of it, but nope, not for me!

I do agree it does have a certain element of tone sculpting a tad too much where was hard to get away from that Billy type sound, so I ended up moving mine on very quickly. I did like it a lot, and the compression was great, but I needed the money that little bit more and it wasn't quite enough for me to keep it.

Would get another if I had the money spare though
