I have a nice crunchy amp (1978 Randall RG100ES) that gives me a great rhythm sound. However, I also want a smooth, super creamy lead sound with massive sustain.
I have tried an EQ pedal, a couple different clean boosts, three different compressors, and two different TS-type pedals. The TS pedals come closest, but still don't give me the creamy sound I am really looking for. The comp pedals gave me the sustain, but we're either too low output (Joyo), too muffled (Pigtronix) or too bright and shrill (Super Comp). I have a Tech 21 Boost RVB pedal and it also gives me the sustain at full boost with the mix on full dry but it still does not have the smoothness I crave.
Help?
The shops where I live have very limited selection so I am stuck with buying & flipping. It's getting pretty old and I feel like I am chasing my tail.
