Your go-to edge of breakup od?
I used to bond with ssbs mini for everything, from clean boost, slight breakup to starved fuzz toanz after other od pedals. But with my new amp (ampeg gvt, awesome goddamn amp btw) it sounded harsh and rather shit. I'm digging a Proco You Dirty Rat at the low gain setting for the amp and hit it harder with other drive pedal for meaner gain. What's your fave low & high combos? And also which 2 in 1 boxes are good out there?

My modded DS-1 with a diode removed and the gain all the way down. Pretty clean till I realy dig in or hit it hard with another OD or fuzz

Fairfield Barbershop is a good choice for this.

Sure it's not just an EQ'ing issue? The Ampeg eq has a different learning curve than many amps.synthezatory wrote:But with my new amp (ampeg gvt, awesome goddamn amp btw) it sounded harsh and rather shit.
