It's the weak link on my tiny board. It's a Taiwan ver.
Right now I'm playing a strat and a tele into clean fender amps. They have low output single coils.
Chain:
Guitar
Tuner
Ds-1 (I like it first cuz it seems very easy to clip the input with other pedals)
Ehx East River
Bd-2 blues driver (stock)
Amp
The ds-1 I don't typically use by itself unless I can play really loud, in which case it sounds pretty good actually.
But for low to medium volume I stack it with the bd-2 and get a little gain from each
But no matter what I seem to try, I don't like the compressed bass of the ds-1. It seems to rob the definition from my low strings.
I like that the ds-1 is not too mids emphasized. I like the amount of gain I can get. It's good when it's level up volume down, but I want something with that general character but also sounds good with unity-ish level and more gain, and just a little more Dynamics and definition. I have my TS style pedal for when I need mids.
Long ago I had a dano cool cat drive so I feel like OCD is a no brainier. I believe the cool cat was most like HP mode but it could not switch.
I also had an mi audio crunch box which I feel could work.
What else is out there.
