well I use a Boss DS1 for rythm, then add in a blues driver, with the gain rolled off, and the level up, for the lead.
Does anyone here run two OD pedals, one for rythmn crunch and one for lead? If so, what do you use and what type of amp.
This would seen to make sense with a Fender, so you'd have three basic sounds and then you could sculpt the tones with the guitar volume and tone controls.

well yeah, if the amp has a second channel, chances are its better than the pedals.Originally Posted by SCREEM

I have three actually.
When I'm using a single channel amp, I have use a Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster pedal for a completely clean boost to drive the amp a little harder for either more delicate solo passges or a little edge for blues stuff. Then I have an old RAT pedal from the mid-eighties. I bought it new and have never stopped using it. This gives me my standard rock tones. And recently I added a Big Muff for that BIGGGG sound. Kinda like a guitar being played at one end of a long hollow log. I use it specifically for just a couple of tunes we do that require that kind of sound.
When I use an amp that has an EQ bypass (Kingsley, Two-Rock) I just use that function as my low boost setting and bypass the Duncan Booster pedal.

I got 4 for different flavours + levels of distortion and use a Dual Loop A/B switcher from Skreddy pedals to switch between the two pairs:
Side "A": Diamond Fireburst and Subdecay Blackstar
Side "B": Cusack Screamer Fuzz and Xotic BB Preamp

...tonebone: trimode for crunch and overkill, hot british for modern high gain.

Presently using a Boss SD-1 which I have modified beyond recognition and in front of that I use a Rangemaster style clone which I built , setup up similar to the katana boost . Use the SD-1 for the overdrive and kick in the boost for some solos. These two are followed by a Fulltone deja vibe and a homemade trem pedal.
God it must be nice to have the skills to do that. I've installed a couple of USB cards in a computer and a new speaker in my amp and that freaks me out.Originally Posted by PaulS
What type of amp do you run it through? How do you chain your stomp boxes? ( Ithink that's what you call it ??????)Originally Posted by david henman
