    Use the BOSS Ds-1. That is the cleanest and the best for your money.

    hey, Distortion pedals and overdrive pedals are particularly comparable in that the two create distortion (by skill of clipping the sound waves). With an overdrive pedal the quantity of the distortion effect varies with the quantity point. At low quantity there will be little or no distortion. With a distortion pedal, the quantity of the distortion effect is dialed in and maintains to be consistent in any respect quantity ranges. for this reason applying the two an overdrive and a distortion pedal isn't an excellent thought because of the fact the two are turning out to be distortion. It turns into annoying to dial interior the tone you like. A compressor/sustainer pedal will between different issues upload some quantity. you may desire to apply that throughout front of a distortion or overdrive pedal and not in the back of it. The compressor/sustainer pedal will additionally strengthen any noise. maximum overdrive and distortion pedals are noisy. you're in all probability finding for a clean enhance. you could set Timmy to grant you clean enhance. you additionally can get a clean enhance from an old Klon. yet those pedals are costly, particularly the old Klon pedals (if it is likewise possible to discover one). A Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster Pedal supplies you a clean enhance and is low priced. that's truly useful to overview that out. Danelectro makes a greater moderen pedal of their Cool Cat sequence, the CTO-a million. that's a Timmy clone and supplies you a clean enhance. i've got confidence the CTO call stands for clean clean overdrive.
