Members AcheWater Posted April 27, 2008 Members Share Posted April 27, 2008 Currently I'm running a Custom Sheraton II into a Boss SD-1 --> Keeley Rat II --> a chunky cheese (soon) --> Vox AC30 I've grown bored with the SD-1 and want a more versatile OD for ($200 or less). Any suggestions for this setup?? TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AcheWater Posted April 27, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 27, 2008 Screwdriver for $195. I do like the screwdriver (esp on single coils) but I think it may get muddied up with the HH semi-hollow, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a ton of albums and this is a small sample. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know. Moving from one boss OD to another just kinda feels...meh. Are the two (SD-1/OD-3) really that different?? I'm mainly looking for versitility.

Members mrweems Posted April 27, 2008 Members Share Posted April 27, 2008 but then why change a good thing. sd1 into rat is basically what i run. i like it. except my sd1 is a hotcake. i have it setup like i would an sd1 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members echodeluxe Posted April 27, 2008 Members Share Posted April 27, 2008 the od3 is inanely versatile. it can go from a clean boost to a really gritty drive to anything in between. its my favorite pedal besides my space echo. its not like the sd-1 at all. the sd-1 is a tubescreamer clone, and the od-3 is its own beast. more gain on tap, more natural sounding, less of a mid hump. try it at least.

Yeah, I know the SD-1 is Boss' take on the TS9. I will definately give the OD-3 a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members smrz Posted April 28, 2008 Members Share Posted April 28, 2008 (OMG Spam) Buy a (my) copperhead. It's too bright with my single coil/fender amp setup, but would sound great with humbuckers/vox. It's very low gain, extremely touch sensitive and amplike. Kind of similar EQ wise to an old Fender.

Members AcheWater Posted April 28, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 28, 2008 OK between Screwdriver, HotCake, and OCD v.3 or v.4 Somebody convince me to buy their favorite of these pedals. All of its "neighbors" are in my sig. Nothing is going to leave the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is going to leave the board. I always love a hotcake into an ac30. But, if you are looking for something really different from what you have and versatality and you are into Black Keys, etc. I suggest trying a good Germanium fuzz face type pedal. If you get a good one you can get a ton of different tones by adjusting the volume and tone knobs on the guitar. My favorite is the fulltone '69. other good ones are: analogman sunface, and i've heard good things about (but have not played) the mjm london fuzz and monsterpiece fuzz's. All of these can be had used or new for $200 or under. The screwdriver I believe is a germanium based od and would probably be an awesome choice but the used prices i've been seeing lately have been over $200.
