OD pedal wish list

[gwjensen]

If you could have any OD/dist/boost pedal(s), what would be your wish list. As much as we might like to have them all, try to keep it under 10. Here's my list, in no particular order:

Fulltone OCD (have it)
Fulltone Plimsoul
Hermida Zendrive
Wampler Ecstasy
Timmy
Klon Centaur
Nobles ODR
Tubescreamer
Xotic BB Preamp
Rockbox Boiling Point OD

I don't have any experience with any of them, except the OCD. The list is based strictly on what I've read, popularity, hype and, possibly, mystique.

[puremania]

Fuzz

[blowtorch]

Nocturne Atomic Brain

Wampler Pinnacle

the following, just to see what all the hubbub has been about:
Klon Centaur
Original Ibanez TS808
Original Proco Rat
Blackstone Appliances whatever it's called

[JesterR]

Analogman KoT
Analogman Sun Lion
BJFE SHOD
Skreddy Screwdriver
Menatone TBIAC (8 knob)
Menatone COTB (7 knob)
Catalinbread Silver Kiss mk2 (now I had AE version, which is not pedalboard-friendly)

I feel so much GAS after my own post :(

[bigp7099]

i guess the last things to make are a rat and king of tone, i'll probably get there

[aunchaki]

Hmmm... In no particular order:

Fulltone Soulbender
Klon Centaur (why not, since we're just playin')
Wampler Ecstasy
Wampler Black '65
Rat
Tube Screamer
HAO Rust Driver
HAO Sole Pressure

On that list, I only have one: the HAO Rust Driver. It's great.

Let's see, I have a Nocturne Ubangi Stomp (Rat)... Nope, I don't need anymore. Now Fuzz pedals on the other hand....

[Enaitz]

I just need one: Marshall Bluesbreaker 2.

It's impressive how this cheap and velvety pedal, widely available everywhere, is still a great unknown.

I have been checking ebay every day for the past 6 months for a Reverend Drivetrain II. Can't find one for the life of me.

[bossking7]

Sweet Honey Overdrive
OCD
Ep Booster
Mighty Red Distortion
Wampler Black '65
Timmy
Formula 5
Barber LTD SR

[Chiogtr4x]

This is not a real wish list so much as a "curious to try out someday" list:

A real TS-808 (just to compare with my TS clones/variations)
Zendrive
Fuzz Face type
Tone Bender type fuzz

[czech-one-2]

1) Machinehead pedals 72 degrees and RAW
2) Blackstone Appliances overdrive
3) Skreddy Lunar Modual
4) BJF Mighty Red Distortion
5) Bearfoot FX honey bee
6) Blackout effectors Hoof Fuzz

But alas, I'm on a JOYO budget

[smoss469]

Not limiting myself to OD's:

SUF Pumpkin Pi
SUF Civil War
Fulltone Soulbender
Klon (Want to check the hype)
Black Arts LSTR
MHP 72 Degrees
Hermida Zendrive
Crowther Hotcake
Menatone KoTB (Big Box w/complete set of controls)
CB Formula 5
CB SFT


I'll stop there.

If you would like another, I have one that doesn't see much use (I just find myself relying less and less on dirt pedals lately).

[BWNadeau]

There's only one on my wishlist right now - the Holdsworth signature OD from Rockett - it has been ordered already, and will ship as soon as they'er ready to go out. I a/b'd my pedals with a lot of highly touted stuff today, and I realized I pretty much have what I want in the dirt department.

-Dano Coolcat OD Version 1 (Have it, main OD pedal)
-Aramat Effects Soul Patch Fuzz (Have it, tonebender clone)
-Vox Tonebender (Would be cool to have the real thing!)
-Fulltone OCD (Played through one a few times, would love to replace my dano with this)

Used to use a Marshall BB-2 for my main OD, I think it's a little too midrangey for my tastes, but I still have it

So that's the Cool Cat Drive you own?( the OCD clone, not the Trans. OD) I had one of those (sold it to try something else...) pretty nice pedal!

Yup! I got it for something like $35 from MF a couple years ago after hearing the rave reviews on here. You're right, great little pedal for the $$, side by side with my buddy's OCD you can barely tell the difference!

Only gripe is the knobs facing forward. What's up with that?!

Was surprised when I got it that the case was metal, and so durable. The tru by-pass and blue LED make it a nice set up

Glad I got it so early on so I was able to get the V1

^^ Funny, for the style of music I play (just not too hard rocking for me, most of the time) I prefer the Dano TOD V.1 to the Dano Drive- BUT that said, I actually think the Dano Drive is more dynamic and controllable with your guitar volume knob. The TOD gives me a nice breakup, but it stays there when I turn down, the Drive, got cleaner...

One way to get over the crappy knob/jack placement is to just try putting all the knobs at NOON and control everything from guitar! Kind of miss the pedal- but I sort of found that even though it has a great crunch and grind on initial attack, I found it short on sustain- so I switched to a Rat clone for getting more sustain for when I do play harder rocking stuff

edit: once you get over the ergonomics (which I know for some is a huge issue) these Dano V.1's were great sounding values

Never thought of that, good idea I'll have to try it! I usually only use it for leads, I use a DRRI as well, so I use my BBE Boosta Grande for my usual dirt, stomp on the Dano for my leads!

I always wanted to try a TOD, but I'm terrified of GAS, I already have too much stuff as it is!!
