Okay....here goes. I have to admit to having something of a drive pedal madness going on here.Within the last 6 months I have at some point owned the following (and in many cases still do)bunch of pedals.
Bought & Sold:
Bogner Burnley
MXR 5150
Engle Blue
Engle Red
Still in my possesion:
CMATMODS Brownie
Wampler Pinnacle
Mooer Power Drive (FUCHS)
Mooer Blacknight (Engle)
Mooer Gas Station (Diezel)
Joyo Ultimate Drive
Blackstar LT2
Tone City Bad Horsie
Tone City Golden Plexi
Digitech Bad Monkey
Digitech Hardwire SC2
Joyo AC Tone
Joyo American
I think that is the majority of them. I'm running them into the front of a Fender style 6v6 low watt tube amp with a 2-12" Marshall cabinet. Not doing any gigging or recording with this setup. Just practice at home. I have larger amps and a number of smaller practice amps...Vox, Yamaha THR, Joyo Zombie, Nano Legacy Purple Wind...but I have been trying to nail down my drive sound using strictly a pedal(s). The clean sound on the amp is great and the 15 watts is just enough to jam with a drummer win the rare occasion arises. The sound I am looking for is that driven crunch with kind of a mix of modded JCM 800/Plexi "Brown" without the phaser and echoplex. The CMATMODS Brown has been the closest I have purchased so far to getting the tone I'm looking for but the lack of a 3 way EQ really keeps it from working for me. I don't need over the top amounts of gain. Really interested in the Weehbo JCM Drive because of a couple of videos and reviews I have seen but the cost is getting a bit ridiculous for something that is not my primary setup or even really my main practice rig. I'd hate to tie that much money up in one and have to deal with flipping it if I don't care for it. Little different with a hundred dollar pedal... I'm wondering if the Palladium could be "the one" for me? Do any of you guys own or have any experience with one? I see them all the time for under $200 at GC and I can return it there if I don't like it. Any other suggestions are welcome. Running staright into the clean channel.
