Best M9/M13 Distortions

Sign in to disble this ad
I am thinking about purchasing a Line 6 M9 or M13 and am wondering what users think are the best distortion models for use with bass?

Thanks,
Mike

The line6 distortion model... hahaha.
No, seriously, I prefer the overdrive (I think it's called like that).

Facial Fuzz
Tube Comp
Octave Down Fuzz

Those are my favourites but the Line 6 distortion is great when used with a pitch shifter for those 80's moments.

I like TaySte's suggestions. I like running the overdrive into the facial fuzz. I also like the tube drive and the line6 drive in spot duty.

Personally at the moment I'm running separate fuzz pedals but only because I need 3-4 fx on the m13 all the time for what I'm doing, I'm going to do some clips this weekend to show people what I've been talking about.
