Ocd, BB, botique booster/overdrive


Im looking for a pedal with lots of sustain,controllable feedback, harmonic qualities and of course, good overdrive/distortion. What pedal would best boost my amp with the above qualities?

Thanks

The best pedal for that would be the Fulltone GT 500 if you dont mind spending alittle money (200 USD), it is two pedals in one. It has a 20 db boost on one side and a distortion on the other, the cool thing is you can change the order they go in.

Also if you have a tube amp, try a Vodoo lab Sparkle drive, it adds a gorgeous layer of harmonics over every thing you play, you can even use it clean.

I like the BB Preamp coupled with an amp with a good overdrive channel.

Tried the BB and the OCD side by side with my amp, bought the OCD. It was alot warmer sounding then the BB and had a higher boost. The BB sounded like my 83 Ibanez TS-9, so no need to have two of the same pedals. So if the TS-9 ever dies on me, I will be getting a BB to replace it.

I have a keeley modded SD-1 that works really well. I use it for everything from a simple clean boost to warm bluesy tones on the clean channel.
