I run my mando through fuzz and modulation all the time, it sounds fucking awesome, with all of the high freq content the mando puts out, and the unison strings do funky things to fuzzes too.
My wife isn't a musician, so no dice for getting gear for each other.

My mando has a pickup on it already. Not sure if she'd be cool with sticking a pickup on her mando, but that's the route I'd go.
