Ok.. so I'm new to the world of pedals. I played through a Boss OD-3 overdrive pedal that a friend of mine had... and I must say it sounded pretty sweet. But, what would YOU guys suggest as your favorite overdrive pedals? Also, what other effects do you use?
I play through either an Ampeg SVT-VR --> SWR Megoliath OR through an Orange AD200 --> my custom built 4x12.

yes, we all know you, fuzz geek!!
Seriously now, and risking a battering, boss one is great to start with, cause of the possibilities. Overdrive is a world of it's own: I spent a little fortune on them, ended up with one of THE overdrive pedals that started everything: Tubescreamer 9. Guitar pedal, yes, but somehow it works for me. Your ears are in charge (and your wallet, of course).

Worst case scenario is you have to sell it...and if you sell it here, it'll get scooped up! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
