Timmy is my fav to push a crunchy Marshall, more so than my Klone. SUF Cherry Bomb treble booster is up there, very nasty in a good way.So I’ve used a Boss SD-1 for a long time and I think they are killer with my Marshall style amps. Pulled out the Maxon OD-820 the other day and man that thing sounds good! Might be my new go to. Ordered a Tumnus to try out, dang I’m going down the rabbit hole lol
dang Ive never tried a Timmy. Didnt know Steve had a treble booster, will have to check that out!!Timmy is my fav to push a crunchy Marshall, more so than my Klone. SUF Cherry Bomb treble booster is up there, very nasty in a good way.
I hear you man!! I’ve avoided this for a while but fell in lolI fall for this all the time...the SD-1 comes off the board because I get excited for a new OD and think I've "found the one".
And eventually the SD-1 goes back. Every. Single. Time. It's on there now. I have a box of probably 20 really nice OD's. And I still get tempted to buy another, though I'm getting "slightly" better at resisting the temptation.
Boogies sound even better with a boostReally? This is a problem that I'll never ever have, my biggest problem is too much gain/overdrive. Boogie on.
Yep. The Rectos I've owned sounded best with the old tried and true TS9.Boogies sound even better with a boost
Trust me.
The Standout works well for what it does, and is very flexible. But to my ear it just wasn't as sweet sounding or musical as a typical OD pedal (like the SD-1 or OD808). But it is neat and a great concept.I have really been wanting to try a VFE Standout, it's really the only pedal I even want to try. I have been using an old Boss Blues Driver for like 15 years.
Agreed. It was a cool pedal, but I liked some of my rack PQ’s better and imo the Dino pedal also does better for tightness and stuff like thatThe Standout works well for what it does, and is very flexible.

Tell me more about the Dino. Seems pretty interesting!Agreed. It was a cool pedal, but I liked some of my rack PQ’s better and imo the Dino pedal also does better for tightness and stuff like that
