Creed kinda sound

Anybody knows what it takes to get creed's distortion tone?

EQ Settings, pedals?

Creed? Oh, that's easy. Take a PRS singlecut, run it straight into a Mesa/Boogie triple rectifier. a few minimal tweaks, and you're there. All you need is about 6 grand to blow.

Fender had an ad on their website a while ago with him pushing the CyberTwin...

Yeah, most recently he's been using the Cyber Twin. But for the classic Tremonti sound, it's basically a Les Paul or PRS of any kind through a Mesa Dual or Triple Rectifier (can't remember which he said he was using). And on "Human Clay" his tone was greatly affected by his speaker setup. He had a 4x12, and a custom 1x15.

Besides speakers and amp; can pedals do the trick?

Depends what kind of pedals. Amp sim pedals might get ya closer than a fuzzbox, but if you got the right amp... check out

I saw an entire outline of his live rig in a guitar mag about 6 months ago. His sound is a combination of the following:
Mesa Triple Rectifiers though Mesa 4x12 cabs &amp; Fender Showman 2x15 cabs.
