So I've been debating about getting a Duncan 805.
I already own a few TS style pedals. I like them all for several reasons, but I end up going back to my trusty TS808. My amps seem to like that one the best.
I like my TS808 the most because out of the ones I own it is the one that cuts the most low-end and boosts the most mids. It also has a nice polished character to the mids and highs, and it feels squishy with just the right amount of compression for my taste.
I wonder if the active EQ of the Duncan would allow me to further tailor the tone by boosting even more mids, and cutting even more bass, and if that would make it worth it?
Also, does the 805 blend the clean signal with the overdriven signal just like a traditional tube screamer does? I find that to be one of the reasons why TS's work so well as boosts.
And I've read the Duncan has more gain range... does that mean it has less gain at lower settings and more gain at higher settings or just more or less gain overall?
Also, how is it in terms of compression and dynamics?
Thanks!
