the 1,000,000th OD thread

Hey chums, I need help.

I need an overdrive pedal, but have no idea where to begin. Overdrive eludes me, in a way. I've tried a few(OCD,Blues Driver,well, that might be it), and I just don't feel like I've found the right OD yet.



If it helps, I play a wide variety of music on a tele into a Blues Jr. Oh, and preferably under $200 would be good too.



Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

You haven't found the right overdrive yet because there is no right overdrive.

I've sworn off overdrive myself.

Get yourself a germanium booster or something.

DR. SPACERITUAL, DMB

Also, try the Fuck. It's rad, and unlike any other overdrive. Or, go for boosts. Just, get any boost you can get your hands on.
