i've tried bugger all, but i think te electro harmonix big muff pi is my signature sound.
i still occasionally use a behringer FD300, i've had that for about 2 years and its working fine

No option there for DIY!

I use the mutant Fuzz Face I built myself, an OCD clone I made, and a heavily modded Boss DS-1.

Couldn't find pedals on the market which sounded like I wanted after years of searching, so ended up having to make them. :lol:

My favourite distortion pedal is the VOX Satchurator.

Hi corpseknot: none of the above.

The Blackstar HT-Dual has been my fave for a while now.

I also have a pre-production Wilkinson FretKing Distortion I've grown very partial to. And of course my Ninja White Noise is never far from my line-up - a terrifying pedal. 8)

Cheers - C

Been using the same od/dist. box for years. Jekyll & Hyde. I think I'm getting ready to try others though, maybe a DIY or boutique.

Best thing I've ever heard. Better than every amp gain I've ever heard too. Punchy mids, saggy bass and shrill treble all at the same time.

I had this made for me by the terrific Mr Mike Livesley. (MadebyMike)

Its a Sovtek Big Muff clone and a Proco Rat clone in one box. He dubbed it a "Box of '90s" in his blog.

BYOC clone of the Marshall Bluesbreaker pedal. I like it way better than my Tube Screamer. I have two one stock and one that I modded for mt Strat. Guys and Gals, try building your own pedals. It's fun and a learning experience too.
