Members bondini Posted February 3, 2007 Members Share Posted February 3, 2007 So I think I've narrowed it down... Fat strat through CLEAN Fender, classic rock/heavy rock/psych/stoner Already got Mayo & TS9 (probably replace with Liquid Sunshine or Screwdriver) I want the distortion sound of a cranked amp, not too fuzzy, nice & natural & responsive. Help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bondini Posted February 3, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 3, 2007 Hey Brian, I can't try any I'm afraid, being in the Grim North. The stupid box, can I get it to sound like a distorting cranked amp without too much fuzziness? Does it compare at all to the scod or crunch box? (never tried these either, but I've read a lot about them) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Coolie No.1 Posted February 3, 2007 Members Share Posted February 3, 2007 I am still confused about the stupid box. The clips suggest that it can do quite heavy stuff. The reviews suggest its at best a medium gain. I would really like to try it, if someone can clear it up about its capabilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JDandCoke Posted February 3, 2007 Members Share Posted February 3, 2007 If you are near london, check out vintage and rare guitars. i believe they stock all three.no crunch box not that ive ever seen anywayanyway get a liquid sunshine to replace the TS9 (screwdriver is fuzzy.) then get the SCOD for the stoner/psychedelic drive.

Members bondini Posted February 3, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 3, 2007 Yes I think an LS is coming, but the scod sounds like it might be slightly too fuzzy/coloured, I've got my Mayo for stoner, I want big natural Marshall crunch through a Fender, not sure if the scod is the thing, maybe OCD, or MI Audio Blues Pro even? Still very interested in the Stupid Box. Or do I just want a Rat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fast Frets Posted February 3, 2007 Members Share Posted February 3, 2007 You might check out the Box of Rock. I don't know how it is with single coils because I only saw it demoed with HBs but it was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still very interested in the Stupid Box. Or do I just want a Rat? when i listen to my SCOD its not really a marshall sound (post 1970) it can do a cranked bluesbreaker type thing though. but more cranked tweed amp... maybe get a screwdriver? and a LS of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bondini Posted February 3, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 3, 2007 Wow, can a screwdriver really do that? the clips I've heard sounded kinda thin & fuzzy. Love Skreddy's stuff on the whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dysorexia Posted February 3, 2007 Members Share Posted February 3, 2007 Well for me, more so the top fuel than the screwdriver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bondini Posted February 4, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 4, 2007 Holy {censored}, I just had a PayPal kamikaze frenzy and ordered myself a Screwdriver AND an OCD. Can't afford either! Very excited!!!!!!! Ha hoooooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JDandCoke Posted February 4, 2007 Members Share Posted February 4, 2007 well if you sell one shoot me a PM i may buy either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alteredsounds Posted February 4, 2007 Members Share Posted February 4, 2007 StupidBox is the most perfect lowish-gain pedal I have ever heard using Fender Guitars on Fender amps. Screwdriver is also superb....HARD choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
