I'm done by now with my heavy dirt pedal search: My Jackhammer does just fine for me.
I'm a happy dog, it's a bit too scooped but nothing some EQ on my amp can't fix.
However, it can't do warm overdriven sounds because, as mentioned, it's too scooped, even with the contour circuit off, which I always keep that way.
My Keeley-spec Blues Driver isn't bad at this at all, I really like it, but it lacks some control. Just a tone knob isn't enough for me.
I can tweak the EQ curve with different capacitors, but that's not exactly quick or truly flexible, is it?
So, I'd like to have a pedal that can do warm Vox crunch, something reminiscent of Queen, U2, Deep Purple, you know. Warm, natural crunch, both with humbuckers and single coils.
Dynamic, perfect clean-up with the volume knob, you get the idea already.
So, what dirt pedal could do those vintage sounds while having, hopefully, a 3 band EQ? Or at least bass and treble.
Oh and BTW, the cheaper, the merrier.
Have no limits on that, as long as it fits what I'm after.
Thanks!
