    Awesome stuff as usual, Dagan.
    I live and breathe by the Boss SD-1. I've found it best to use it with a crunchy tone on the amp - not so much with a clean channel.
    Dunno, I've found it thin and harsh-sounding on a clean channel, but that might just be my own stupidity at play. Maybe I'm missing a trick there.
    I've tried all the others in the video, but I'm more than happy with the SD-1. For the price, there just aren't any more reasonable options otherwise.

    @Michiel1972 4 роки тому +2

    I discovered my tone recently by accident. I had some "expensive" pedals on my board, but removed them from the board. Think they won't be back there anytime soon. Three of those pedals are here in this video (TS808, OCD and MXR). I recently borrowed a Marshall Jackhammer JH-1 from a friend and couldn't believe my ears what it did in OD mode to my sound on a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, with the gain at 1 o'clock, as well with Strat as my Les Paul. It did give a beautiful boost to my clean tone I haven't heard from other pedals I own myself or tried from friends. After also some research on the internet I decided to purchase the JH-1. Could get it for just 30 bucks (second hand). I wasn't familiar with the "new" Marshall pedals so I did some reading and on the webpages about the JH-1 the Guv'nor 2 plus was mentioned alot too. How the Guv'nor is a much more versatile pedal then the JH-1 and that the DS mode of the JH-1 sucks. Which I noticed myself, DS mode sucks indeed. I will use the JH-1 only in OD mode. So I thought lets try the Guv'nor 2 too, which I purchased for 35 bucks. During experimenting and dialing in the Guv'nor I discoverd that I get an amazing sound with the JH-1, Boss Blues Driver and the Guv'nor 2 in conjuction with eachother. Never had a better tone. So I documented the whole setup with all the parameters. Incase someone might f$#k my settings up by turning the knobs. The sound I get now works extremely well for rhythm guitar as also for lead guitar.

    • @gweeboyoda
      @gweeboyoda Рік тому +1

      The OCD took me some time to tame. I play line-in, and it benefits greatly from having the volume up higher than the gain, and only very slowly adding gain to hit the desired tone, maybe making adjustments on the pickups or whatever. It was also a game changer to run it through some EQ and a color filter (last thing in my chain before mixer is an MXR bass DI/preamp with distortion circuit, noise gate, and color switch). With some hard work I've gotten some fantastic tones out of the OCD with every setting on my guitar (a dual humbucker schecter with coil splitting, and, obviously, a tone knob).

    Ibanez TS-808 and Maxon OD-808 have that low mid growl for heavy tones! Boss SD-1 is similar but has more upper mids and messes up, not as clear note-to-note definition. I have all three (well TS-9 instead of TS-808) and the best tone with a Tubescreamer is with the Level, or Balance in the Maxon, ALL the way up for pushing a semi-dirty amp, Drive at 9 o'clock, Tone almost ALL the way down! You can have '80s Iron Maiden or Judas Priest heavy sound and beyond depending on your amp! Boss SD-1 dialed similarly is better for American sound like Ratt and Twisted Sister.

  • @lorenzoboselli1725

  • @DSeN7
    @DSeN7 5 років тому +82

    The "unaffected" tone was far too crunchy already. It made all the pedals sound almost the same. They all sounded like the Origin's native overdrive. How do I know? Because I also have a Marshall Origin and it has a very characteristic overdriven tone. Despite the fact that the Origin is supposed to be a good 'pedal platform' amp, it's actually not that great as a pedal platform. Dagan always does a great job though, so I hope to see another similar video with a much cleaner amp!

    The point of Edge of break up is that if you really dig in it distorts and if you play light it sounds clean. He was digging in pretty hard I bet so it sounds gritty

  • @Xx_Ultimate_Noscoper_xX
    @Xx_Ultimate_Noscoper_xX 4 роки тому +1

    Dagan make everything good, real good, even with that amp set waaaayy too crunchy. Green Rhino IV or MXR Super Badass Dist, for me both are more flexible because they have more tone twisty knob thingys and make everything sound real good even without Dagan.

    You did a video a while back on an effects pedal with just about everything on it. Pretty sure there was a channel to make electric sound like acoustic. Can't find the video! Anyone remember what it was?

    Of my knowledge the ocd is the best of the ones right here and the best overdrive pedal in the world is a argenziano efetti MKF this thing will make you trow all your distortions ts and ocd away the moment you plug it 😂🙌🎸
