Distortion pedal

[zidanek43]

Hello, i want to ask you for help. I want to buy a new distortion pedal. I play Guns N' Roses, Black Sabbath, Gary Moore, AC/DC, Slash. I have Kustom KG112FX and Epiphone Les Paul Custom Pro (Humbuckers). I can't decide which pedal will be better for me.
-MXR Custom 78' Badass Distortion
-Joyo Crunch Distortion
Is the second option copy of MI Audio Crunch Box? Is it good copy? Do you know cheaper and better than Joyo copy of Crunch Box?
If you have other types you can write. I'm open for other pedals. But no DS-1 and DS-2. This pedals work not good with my amp...

Re: Distortion pedal

I've got a KGA65 amp which sounded awesome with a Crunch Box I test out a while back. I recently got a 78 Distortion, I'll try it this weekend and let you know. The 78 may be a very good pick though. It has less dirt than the Crunch Box, but for what you are going for the 78 may just be fine.

Re: Distortion pedal

I have used Digitech Grunge for 5 years now and it is suited for hard rock and metal, able to produce fat distortion and screaming highs. Just the right balance. But the switch went faulty after a year or 2, requiring repeated, vigorous stomping in order to switch it on/ off.
