    Yeah, it ill be pretty thin and un-electric like through the Roland. Could be okay for Jazz with an archtop.   What you could do is get a pedal with modelling in, like this:-

    You can get them around £50 S/H

    As above you will be okay with an archtop (Martin Taylor used an AER domino in the past). I briefly ran a Telecaster through my old amp but it was very compressed and flat sounding, so I'd say a new amp for solid body electrics.
