Looking for a nice versatile od pedal for Top 40.

[James Lugo]

Maybe looking for something less aggressive as an ocd. I’m gonna be playing a variety of music in a corporate band. 70s mellow to disco to classic rock to Bruno Mars to Pat Benatar to GnR. I love the ocd but it pushes me to get evil. I need to pick my battles. What’s a good one to add some gain and compression and sustain for Journey and Whitesnake solos. Nothing to grindy and nothing to bluesy.

Timmy pedal (version 1)... or a Klon clone.

 

[mooncobra]

rocket ikon, klon clone, great pedal for what you are looking for

What kind of amp are you going to use it with?

 

[Manxmusicman]

Throwing my favourite od pedal into the mix, Thorpyfx The Dane, a great sounding pedal.

What kind of amp are you going to use it with?

JL use to play out with his Ocean mod, IIRC...bad ass amp.

Off topic...but the amp-fests you used to host&post were great.

Man I love gigging with that amp. Mark put an amazing clean channel in it too. I’m running a Blackstar Club 40 MK2 for this gig.

My favorite pedal...JHS AT+

 

[thenine]

that AT+ sounds great!

 

[WizardSouth-JP]

why not just use an OD808 or Tube Screamer, I find the gain on these on the lower side - or maybe just a clean boost like a Keeley Katana?

That's a nice sounding, affordable 1x12 tube combo amp. I would recommend an Xotic AC Booster pedal.
