Help me fight the overdrive/distortion I want.

It definitely sounds like a guitar distortion, because he hasn't got a lot of low end left. I've never used the Boss Hyper Metal, but I've used an unmodded DS-1 and it wasn't that far off from that tone.

Also, why does he play the riff from Aqualung at the beginning? :smug:
 
def. a chorus pedal. i love that sound. and pick up the boss reverb pedal too. and if you chain that and the boss bass overdrive (odb) put the reverb behind it.. or on the left. haha. if not it will bleed really heavy over everything. my experience is they should always be the last pedals. the only pedal i use after is bass wah. to make it scream. have fun in the process.. tell me if the svt 3 cuts out. and you will def. need the chorus pedal for that sound in the vid.
 
HAHA. Sorry guys. :p Even though you guys had pointed out my typo in the thread name I only just noticed it.

I was thinking "Fight the distortion? *** are they on about?" :p

My bad. :smug: ANYWHO, should be picking up a hyper metal soon. :)

:D It looked like that was going over your head.

Its a funny image though.

When I get home, im so picking a fight with my Tonebender. It always looks at me funny and im sick of it!
