Thanks Mike, I will check this one out. I have a Boss ME-50 but don't particulary like the distortion selections on it. I might just not know what I'm doing. Did you see I listened to Mark on the Pan? Great!

The Ibanez Tube King reissue would be right it the middle of those options. I haven't seen one with my own eyes yet. What I've heard from online demos is great. I'd like to try one out. The void thing seems like a great feature.

I apreciate all of ya'lls help, but I've been listening to samples of all the above pedals and I'm more confused now than I was. I just need to stop a while and start over again later. Oh, the choices!! Thanks and I'm still looking for opinions. :?
And I've still not figured out all of the combinations on my Boss ME-50 :!:

Howdy fhopkins,

There are more OD/Fuzz/Distortion pedals than there are guitarists, all of them a little different, and some will appeal to you more than others. No matter which one you get, you'll want more... :)

By the way, I have heard good things about the ME-50 as several people use it live with good results. If you don't have a manual, you can probably find it online.

The Visual Sound Rt. 66 OD is pretty good.

Skelefish, I have a new manual for it but I'm typical as I don't take the time to read it . It can do hundreds of things and has memory which I'm running short of :lol:
Cryingstrat , I'm going to check that one out to. Thanks. A Rock Star ought to know. :wink:

The nice thing about the Rt. 66 pedal is it also had a compressor. Two pedals in one. I'm a firm believer that every guitar player should use compression.

Here's another one of my creations. It's a tube driven boost and tremolo. It goes from just a touch of boost to nasty tubey saturation!

Image

The boost button switches between the two gain controls. The center switch engages the entire pedal. The Trem button turns the tremolo on and off.

That looks like the one I need indeed!

You are a talented man for sure. I'm amazed at people that can make what they need and do it so well.
