the fab overdrive is quite nice....

 

[ShredCow]

Okay.

Well,

*Deep breath*


Dude.
Let me recommend you a 450USD overdrive. Okay? Its the best in the world.

What?

You can't afford it?

Or wait, you actually buy it... and realise... its not the kind of tone you are after.


Get my drift?
Give more info, or whatever is posted here is as good as walking into a store blindfolded.

I was abt to ask the same thing as the TS...trying to find 2 overdrive pedals tat are suitable..one for rhthym and then turn on the other for solos..any suggestions?

I heard that the Xotic set is pretty good:

RC booster, AC booster, BB preamp.

Never tried it myself, but it makes sense that 1 manufacturer would make his pedals complement each other well. =)

 

[brandnewrock]

digitech tonedriver =)

 

[ChanMin]

tried the BB preamp and RC booster combo for abit.

got rid of the BB preamp. kept the RC booster.

the BB is too .. "Gentle" on its own.

I "HEARD" the Om Laboratories Sahasrara Overdrive is not bad too plus its made in Singapore and forever no stock just to make it more unreachable = mojo.

Yes, I must promote the "MADE IN SINGAPORE" initiative! I'm doing that everyday already anyway...

Get the SAHASRARA!

 

[SpaTanS]

if budget is the key problem ... then try Daphon OD (about $70), Behringer OD (about $50) ... it works well with a Epiphone Les Paul ... :lol: just a touch of OD to it ... 8)

[nickyseow]
