I like to run the old stereo FET models into two separate but identical amps, and I’ve gigged with the VXT in the mono mode, but, until last evening, had never used the VXT with separate amps via the stereo mode as often demonstrated by Matt Smith. Using the stereo output option, I ran (1) the acoustic lead to a Genz Acoustic Pro with a little reverb and delay, (2) the electric lead to a Fender Bassman 4x10 through a Fender Reverb Unit, and (3) a line out from the Genz acoustic amp to the house PA system. Didn't use any pedals. After setting the VXT acoustic/electric pan control on the central indent and balancing out the house sound, I then cranked up the Bassman to allow the electric tone to cut through the acoustic sound otherwise filling the house. I then flipped back and forth between the neck pickup only and both pickups (never using the bridge pickup by itself), with the tone control set at about 7. At the conclusion, I received good feedback from the audience and the sound engineer on the tone. Cool!

Run in to two amps. It really shines that way.
