craig deadenstereo Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 I've got a single channel marshall amp, but play music with a lot of big changes between quiet and full on rock, I've been using a shredmaster + a compressor to get enough gain.But, sadly the Shredmaster is leaving and the switches on all my other pedals are broken, so I'm going to cough some cold hard credit card cash on something new.I'm thinking of the BEST sort of distortion I can get. I wanna go from the classic rock sound of my marshall to soemthing more modern. I can work the volume knob sure, but I wanna have huge dynamic changes.I'm looking at Mesa Boogie Bottle Rockets or V-Twin pedals.Anyone have any other ideas? I'm looking for totally shit yourself pedal that sounds so fucking good all the girls are taking of their pants cos they won't soak up any more liquids and they're wiping on my guitar neck kind of orgasmic good. I know all about the Boss and Marshall pedals. Anyone know of some good sound samples for the effect a tubescreamer has? Or maybe a MXR distortion+ or Micro amp? I hear soldano have something that will suck a golf ball through a garden hose. Anyone know anything about that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 id go and ask over in the forums (more specifically the effects forum) at www.harmony-central.com they will be able to help you for surei would check out www.robertkeeley.com, he mods pedals (and makes some of hs own) like tubescreamers and boss distortions, and from what i have heard, does some bloody amazing stuff, he will sell premodded pedals, or you can send him in your own to get moddedDavidDavid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Found Power Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 Hughes and Kettner and Electro-Harmonix both make decent tube-powered distortion pedals much like th two Mesas you mentioned.Maybe the new MXR Zakk Wylde overdrive?

Tav Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 What about the Jeckle and Hyde pedal the strokes use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig deadenstereo Posted March 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 i don't like the Strokes. Neither does Craig Cuntkicker.All i wanna do is get girls wet.I know about the modded pedals and stuff. I will check them out.I like the son "Sold my Soul" by Wyldie poo. Might check that shit out too. Keep it coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tav Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 Regardless of wether you like the strokes you should check the pedal out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris h Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Craig, have you been on the crystal meth again? Since when did deadenstereo 'get girls wet'? Anyway, I reckon you should try out the Zakk Wylde pedal. Surely a well known rock guitarist wouldn't put his name on a piece of shit pedal just for the money?

craig deadenstereo Posted March 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 nah, half a bottle of whiskey for that one!It is my personal mission in life to "get girls wet". Surely a noble cause. I don't think I'm cut out for finding a cure for cancer. This seems like the next best thing.Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monk Rocker Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Why not try running more than one pedal? I've used a Shredmaster and Boss Turbo OD together with pretty devastating results!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig deadenstereo Posted March 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 I was running a Shredmaster and a marshall compressor together. Got too noisy.That's why I'm maybe looking at a pedal with two channels - like the V-Twin or maybe a Jekyll + Hyde thing (i was playing with ya!). You get a double RAT thing as well. I was actaully looking for people who have used them's experiences. Might go check out harmony central reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
