Pedal reccomendations for Marsha

[rokker]

I've got Marsha #25 with the full clean and tend to stick to the HBE with the gain about half way up.....
I'd like to add a lighter distortion on the clean via a pedal as well as an OD on the HBE to give me three levels of gain.
Low, high and higher. Any pedal suggestions that will work?

I use 2 Timmy's with mine. One on the clean for a slight break up and one for solos.

Tone Freak, Naked OD.

Went through a few pedals over the years. To me, the Rocket Fuel by Majik Box is the best pedal out there for a combination Boost/OD. By no means am I a Doug Aldrich clone, but the pedal is made to drive a driven amp, specifically a Marshall circuit. The clean boost is transparent as hell and the OD is quiet and fairly gentle as far as OD pedals go. It has a 3 way selector to accent the boost for high/mid/low ranges. Its not a fuzz or distortion pedal but will send a clean or driven amp over the top.

Have a look at the Tone Freak pedals, designed by Dave. The Naked OD is a nice pedal, especially when combined with the Boost/Buff pedal. Held off buying these because I got the Rocket fuel.

I'm enjoying the MXR CAE Boost/OD a lot

but the new Jet City Afterburner sounds really good on videos/clips and it's a lot cheaper ($70?)

Thanks guys will check out the tone freak pedals...didn't know Dave had his own pedals.
Wonder if a light distortion will add a lower gain crunch while in the clean....then I would have clean, crunch, HBE, and then HBE plus a Naked pedal.....should cover all the bases with that. Just need something between the clean and HBE.
May try the TF Dragonfly/Naked/Buff Puff combo.

Did Dave have a hand in designing all the Tone Freak circuits, or just the Naked OD?

I'm planning on trying my old mxr 6 band eq, Klon and my TC vintage pre-drive pedal for starters.

I put a morley little alligator volume pedal in the loop .It has a knob for controlling the minimum volume . I set this to my rhythm volume then just step on the pedal for my lead volume . I roll back the guitar volume for different amounts of gain .
This way I get the pure Friedman tone . I never have liked boost,od or pre amp pedals . Every time I buy one i sell it within a month.

Word!! The NAked is for hotter amps alike. My favorite OD for almost 2 yrs- Its made for YOU!! The Abunai 2 is awesome also, but that Naked od is hard to beat- The harmonic structure on it is unbeatable....

Seriously guys. Every time I think I have my OD pedal obsession cured, someone here gets me all fired up about a new one! Now I have to try a Naked OD.

Dude, You are not alone. I read this thread and ordered one. I paid 199.00 shipped. The dealer I used only had one left which I bought.

Its an Awesome OD man. Very transparent in the way it pushes the front end. It's capable of HIGH gain, but the spit it throws at lower gain is super cool adding a dimension all its own- Should call it the Demontor...They don't take up too much realistate on your board either

I gotta try one of these.

Mine was delivered today Paul. If I get a chance when I get home from work, I'll give it a quick test.I'll know right away if it beats the Rocket Fuel. Honestly, after the all the OD's I tried, I would surprised if it outs the RF.

Only spent 10 minutes with the Naked. On first impression I am siding with the RF. It seems a little brighter than the RF. One of the settings on the toggle I did not care for. Both are transparent. The RF is just a little quieter. The Naked is better than most I have tried. I'll have to spend some more time with it to post fairly. I preferred the bass response on the RF.

Update us after a little more time with it.
