How does this amp handle pedals such as tube screamers and such? I currently play the spider valve with a boss bd-2 and it handles it very well and the SRV tones I am getting are amazing.
They are simply coil tap switches for each of the Anderson pickups. The pickups get a bit bigger and brighter when they're switched to single coil operation, but you get the noise as well, of course. Unfortunately, they don't help lessen the weight of the guitar - you absolutely NEED to use a wide strap with it, or you won't be able to move your left shoulder the next day :-)
You are correct, you cannot "tap" a single coil pickup, because it, well, only has one coil :-)
These pickups (and many others like them, made by a bunch of different companies) are single-coil sized, but are actually two coils stacked on top of each other. They're voiced to sound more like single coils, but in operation they are precisely like normal side-by-side humbuckers - just stacked.
@fieroturbo It is Line 6 policy that we only provide schematics to authorized Line 6 Service Centers. Our Support people are always up for discussing any matters, just reach out to them at line6 (dot) com /support. Thanks!
@line6movies I've used Line 6 products since the original Pod bean. I've only had a few occasions to contact support in those 13 years or so, but each time my issue has been handled very well.
Damn... It's killer!!!
Great guitar and AWESOME tone!!! The clean is really pure!!

@Tankwylde Hi, DT50 is designed to work with any regular guitar stompbox pedals as you would any other amp.

This guy is so influential and convincing that he could manage to sell me a freaking Crate amp. I hate him for that.

@seanhalleyguitar How do you coil-tap a single coil? I thought that was only for humbuckers.......

Sean, could you please tell your fans about all the switches on your gorgeous tweed tele?

I'll buy this... just as soon as Line 6 fixes their god-awful tech support.
Till then, I'll stick with Peavey and Fender, because anytime I've needed a schematic from them, they've given it to me.
