Using a Boss SD-1 as a boost for my Soldano Astro 20 - 4 videos

[HowieJams]

I tried to buy all high gain amps so that i would not need any boost pedals and sure, they don't need a boost pedal, but a boost pedal just makes it even better.

I have 3 great tube amps:

Soldano SLO-30 6L6s
Soldano Astro 20 6V6s
Victory MKX EL34s

My Overdrive of choice is the tried and true Boss SD-1 using a 9v battery for power.

I have the level of the SD-1 all the way up, the drive all the way down, and the tone at about 11 o'clock.

I did 4 videos, two comparing the SD-1 on and off and the other two with the SD-1 on the whole time.

One is a Rock backing track and the other is a Spacy type of track.

When I get a chance I will try to do some videos using my other amps also.

I will say the Soldano Astro 20 is my favorite amp, it just sounds great with any guitar.

Let me know what you all think.

Here are the videos:
