Members Davgar97 Posted March 9, 2008 Members Share Posted March 9, 2008 Hey guys, I've got a single channel amp at the moment and I'm looking for a pedal that I can use to go from a clean-ish tone to clasic rock distortion, can anyone recommend a good pedal? (i'm fairly new when it comes to effects!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TheGareth Posted March 9, 2008 Members Share Posted March 9, 2008 MI Audio Tube Zone, MI Audio Crunch Box, EMMA Reezafratzitz, Maxon Real Tube Overdrive or any of those Blackstar pedals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members blackjack davey Posted March 9, 2008 Members Share Posted March 9, 2008 I really like my Ibanez TS-9DX. Granted, its modd'd by Analogman and I have no experience with a stock version but it can cover all of my OD, Dirt, and Boost needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Davgar97 Posted March 9, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 9, 2008 Cheers for all the suggestions. I'm liking the sound of the rat and the tubescreamer but I think I'll try them both out if I can find somewhere that has them in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Kitarist Posted March 10, 2008 Members Share Posted March 10, 2008 Get a TubeScreamer or an OCD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WayTooApe Posted March 10, 2008 Members Share Posted March 10, 2008 tubescreamer or distortion III would work great. but my personal (less common) faves are the emma Reezafratzitz (someone mentioned it above, dont feel like quoting) and the T-rex Alberta. the t-rex would be perfect for what you're trying to do.

Cheers for the advice, I think i read a review of Emma pedals ages ago and they got a very good write up, I've never had a chance to try one out though.

Members Jacek Posted March 10, 2008 Members Share Posted March 10, 2008 Try a Righteous Tones Slinger. I don't have that one in particular (I have the FANG, which is much more metal oriented)l but from your description it should be exactly what you are looking for.
