What is your favorite Overdrive pedal?

[Spudman***]

The "Hoochee Mama" by Tim Brown, @ Browntone electronics.

Those are amazing pedals...but they'd better be for the price. Yikes!

They beat out every pedal made ,including the "Page " pedal in a blind test two years ago, It so happens that he is my uncle and he stays so far behind order wise (he builds one at a time by hand with only the best components) that I have yet to receive any other that my first pedal years ago...Although he is presently making me a custom five in one long pedal with each effect being able to be placed anywhere in the series chain I wish and independently controlled..Echo,chorus, octave splitter,sustain and overdrive. Greg.

I haven't owned a ton of pedals. So far I've been through:

non moded DS-1
FullDrive 2 (non-mosfet)
TS-808 from general guitar gadgets (including all mods except mosfet)
and my two day old BYOC OD2 Mosfet.

I've also played around with:
Fulltone OCD
Lovepedal Eternity
LovePedal COT 50

I like most of em but the versatility of the OD2 is blowing me away. It's pretty similar to the TS from GGG which means I can dial up one for rhythm and one for lead. The opamp in the GGG TS is the JRC which is a bit more warm and the OD2 has the BS170 so it's a little more cutting for lead. The cool thing though is that the OD2 opamp is socketed so I could throw the JRC in there and use it for rhythm if I wanted to. I can't wait to explore this thing some more.

Another vote for the Fulltone OCD. I couldn't be happier. Great pedal and the only effects pedal I use except for a Fulltone Clyde Deluxe wah pedal and a Morley Volume Plus pedal.

I was just thinking of this thread the other night, as I enjoyed my Zonkin Yellow Screamer. The ZYS that Duhvoodooman built for me is based off that pedal, with a bunch of extras thrown in, and a boost circuit as well. It is really just so nice. I really enjoy setting a bit of boost, for rhythm, and kicking on the OD for lead. Very fun!

Nady TD-1 tube OD pedal:


It's like the poor man's Tonebone Classic. Same tone.

I have toyed with the idea of getting a Tonebone... that Nady is sweet! Gotta look that one up! Thanks, Bloozcat.
