Members WittyMonikerHere Posted April 16, 2013 Members Share Posted April 16, 2013 I'm a big fan of that Marshall DSL, Soldano, Plexi-on-steroids sound. Basically a huge mid-range growl that makes your guitar sound huge in a band mix. Anyone know of a great pedal where I can get that mean powertube growl out of a box? I'm currently using a Blackstar HT-Dual, which a good little pedal, but when you crank up your amp, it sounds like dirt/gain rests "on top" of your clean guitar tone. It's not in the "core" (if that makes any sense. You know, like when you have a tube head with the resonance knob cranked). I've read up on the Wampler Pinnacle, and I think it may be the ticket (was kind of surprised the SLOstortion and Triple Wreck sounded a bit too compressed for me).Anyway, any other suggestions? Does this post make any sense to anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sparkfriction Posted April 16, 2013 Members Share Posted April 16, 2013 yeah, Wampler builds nice stuff. the Plextortion, Pinnacle or mabye the Sovereign... for that job. Many brands offers "Marshall" in a pedal, but it depends on your needs and how much gain you want? Menatone King of the Britains 7Knob version was one of the best Amps in a box i've ever playd. But it is more the Plexi/JCM800 route... The stuff from Rockett sounds killer to but i guess the Ten Ton Hammer is not exactly what you are after, and the Animal is again more the Plexi thing. Maybe the new C-Bread Dirty Little Secret.. - dunno. the Empress Multi Drive should do the job too... oh and check out the Emma Reezafratzitz/Reezafratzitz2 !!

Members timrocker Posted April 17, 2013 Members Share Posted April 17, 2013 I've been really pleased with my Carl Martin Plexitone. I haven't put it through a ton of different amps, but it has gone really well with my Fender Super Champ XD and a silver face Super Reverb. It also has a really good boost.
