Can anyone help me figure out which effects Jonny is using to get the great dsitorted tone during the solo in Fix You?

Thanks

Do you think the distortion is from the amp, or is he using one of his pedals to get it (Tonebender, RAT)?

probably a pedal, usually amp distortion is not as good quality and it sounds really good quality in Fix You

The very slight distortion in these songs comes (or rather used to come) from an MXR Micro Amp with the gain knob dialed to maximum in congunction with delay effects. Since he's no longer using the MXR, I immagine the distortion is coming from his Ibanez Tube Screamer now...
