For anyone who uses a Maxon od808 (or a boost similar)....how do you have it set? I'm currently using it to boost my Single Recto and i'm loving it. Mine is set like this:
Overdrive = 0
Tone = 10 o'clock
Balance = 1 o'clock

This really tightens up my overall low end and my palm muted "chunka chunka" stuff. :lol: :LOL:

Anyone else rocking different types of settings that they would like to share?
 
I use mine mainly as an overdrive into my Marshall 2553. I usually have the gain about 11 oclock, volume at 12 oclock (unity), and tone at 1 oclock. For a boost, which I don't do much, I turn down the gain to 9 oclock (tried at zero, but like a little gain better) and volume 3 oclock to cranked.
 
i use mine pretty much like black does except that i don't crank it wide open as a boost. i'll set it at one to two o'clock for that.. and just crank the volume up on the guitar. i like to set my instrument volume at about seven anyway.. so i have some headroom.
