    It's been around for a while and is often ignored but the full size tc electronic spark is a hidden gem of a boost. It sounds really good for metal and it's super affordable. If you're on a budget it's hard to beat.

    All your 5 Favorite OD’s sound great man! Here’s my top 5 favorite overdrives:
    1 - MXR ZW-44B
    2 - Boss SD-1
    3 - MXR M77 Custom Badass Modified O.D.
    4 - MXR CSP-036 Il Diavolo Overdrive
    5 - EHX East River Drive
    I use overdrives as a colored boost primarily, except for the SD-1, I dial up just the tiniest bit of clipping, it darkens the tone in a very pleasing, subtle way. I mainly do this because to my ears, the SD-1 starts to sound crappy w/the volume
    past 3:00, so dialing in a little clipping kind of makes up for this. I’m talking about setting the drive control at 1 or 2 tops.

    I also own an MXR M-77, SD-1 Waza, TS-9, Maxon OD808, Earthquake Plumes and a few others
    They all do the job well but the MK and PD rule the roost

      The Pepers "Dirty tree" is a fan favorite overdrive pedal. Is costs around $135. So it's not cheap but not super expensive. You should check it out. But if you want a amazing badass overdrive, the KSR - Eros is a phenomenal overdrive. Loaded with features and extremely versatile.

      I have the original 3-knob Zombie, and I run a GE-7 in front with the 800hz and level boosted about 10-12db and it really tightens it up and makes it come alive. You might also want to run an EQ in the loop as sort of an added tone-stack since the Zombie just has the Tone control.

    Seymour Duncan 805 overdrive pedal will never leave my pedal board. It is the best in my opinion. Dave Davidson said the same thing and the 805 is what he uses on every record and live performance, I noticed the other guitar player uses it as well. Brutal musicians pick the brutal pedals and the 805 is 🤯.

    After watching this video I picked up the MXR Custom Badass because like you, I wanted a little bit more balls to my sound. I also was using the Joyo Vintage Overdrive too.
    Hot damn. :D I'm loving this thing.

    Hey brother. Been watching your channel for a while now, and its very informative every time. I am in the market now for another od pedal. I've been using the sd-1 for 20 years now. I love EVERYTHING about it. The added gain, the transparency of my amps tone, doesn't change the tone at all, it just boost it, which i love. The ONLY problem with it, is that when i step on it, i lose about 15% of my low end. So im looking at your #2 and #1. Im thinking the mxr would probably do what i need. Pretty much like the sd-1,a transparent gain boost with a little bass i can add. I really love the tone of my 6505+, so i dont want to lose that. But im really loving the #1. I like the gate idea. Let me ask...does the gate work even if the pedal is off?? Thanks brother 🤟🤟✌🥂

    • @belligerentamateur

      MXR would work great for you, as it's already somewhat similar to the SD-1

      @@belligerentamateur i appreciate the response brother. That's what i figured. Is the mxr noisy when its on? More or less then the sd1?? The gate on that #1 pedal is a fantastic idea. Wish they'd all do that. Does the gate work when its off?? Sorry for the questions but i cant find a lot of info on it. Thanks👍🤟🤟✌🥂

    So far like Boss SD-1, Horizon Precision Drive and have a KSR Eros on the way. What are your thoughts on the KHDK Ghoul Screamer and Dire Wolf pedals?

    • @belligerentamateur
      @belligerentamateur  2 роки тому +1

      KHDK is one of my favorites, very refined TS syle pedal, Direwolf is not for me, doesn't tighten like most overdrives.

    • @belligerentamateur
      @belligerentamateur  2 роки тому

      They do ok together, depending on if you go with the Crunch or Crush channel. The Crush lready has an "always on" screamer style circuit built in, so a cleaner style boost to juice that channel works better. A bbost with a lot of output works better on the crunch channel, so the Walrus Ages or Mesa Grid Slammer are good fits

    The MXR 6 band eq has eliminated my need for a boost pedal in any of my heads. Took it out of the box, looked up Dimebag's settings...boom! I really didn't expect that. Now I have a lot of overdrive pedals collecting dust.
