Members DAFSTRAT Posted May 23, 2008 Members Share Posted May 23, 2008 I just want something that will add a touch of warmth and give great sustain for lead work. I don't get to really crank this amp as much as I like as its so loud so my current lead tone is a bit lack lusture. There are so many frigging choices, any opinions to help point me in the right direction would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members CiceroTJones Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 Seymour Duncan Twin Tube Classic... Lead tones are BAD!!!!!!!! Singing sustain and great control of gain/volume/EQ. I just play rhythm or I'd keep mine. Wanna buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rummy Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 OCD is too bright in front of the Laney, I thought. I had a Sparkle Drive, and it worked very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rummy, you advice is appreciated, espically being a fellow GH50L user. Anyone had any experience with the Burriss Boostiest pedal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DAFSTRAT Posted May 26, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 The Crowther Hotcake mark 3 also looks very interesting. Anyone used that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarbilly74 Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 Laney GHs have great lead tone when turned up, I think an attenuator would be a better choice than a pedal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members justintee Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 seeing you're in this part of the world, the hotcake is a great pedal.. goes from clean boost to very string-clear OD/dist... you've got MI Audio pedals manufactured in australia as well... check them out.. i've used the blue boy deluxe, which is essentially a TS close; didn't quite like that one... the Tube Zone (which i still have and quite like) is a great metal pedal, mesa-ish some say... lots will rave re: the crunch box surely.

Members bluesdriver Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 I own one of these ... Its more a preamp than a pedal, but it has very nice mids filter built in, and is particularily useful for boosting big amps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lenster Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 I use an eq in the loop and my compressor to add a bit more sustain.sometimes i push it with my fulldrive also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TheGareth Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 What about a Keeley Tubescreamer and an attenuator? Paul Gilbert used to use this set up with his Laney... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members django5 Posted May 26, 2008 Members Share Posted May 26, 2008 http://www.treblebooster.net/ I have the RM, best pedal ever. The guitars volume control becomes so much more useful and it gives a great bite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did think about an attenuator but have read mixed things about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DAFSTRAT Posted May 27, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 27, 2008 I did grab myself a Barber Tone Pump EQ this morning as it was a good deal. I'll probably just use this with my Standard Strat for bluesy type stuff. Never heard the pedal before but it does get good reviews. Might look into the attenuator a bit more for the other.
