Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?

Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?

16 volts though? Could I run it at 18v or 12v?

Also maybe I'm being deceived by the name, but do these twin tube pedals have pre-amp tubes in them or is it just a play on the tubescreamer name

Not sure about the twin tube but the Blackstar HT Dual does have a preamp tube.

The TT pedals do have tubes in them. And they don't run "starved plate".

It's been said already, but for a side-by-side overdrive/distortion, the good ol' Jekyll & Hyde covers a lot of ground.

i dont think they are designed to run at other voltages. there are actual tubes inside the duncan pedals running at real plate voltages
 
Re: Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?

The tubes in the Seymour Duncan pedals are some kind of military-grade sub-miniature tubes, right? Not your typical 12AX7s?
 
Re: Favorite Dual OD/Distortion Pedal?

yes. mini dual triodes, not 12ax7s. the different pedals use different tubes, cant recall what off the top of my head

VS-XO for blues jams... KOT when I wanna be finicky about tone.

The Blackstone sounded fantastic, but hard to re-dial in after swapping guitars, amps.

i tend to use my deluxe reverb 90% of the time and swapping guitars doesnt seem to necessitate setting changes much. almost all my guitars have more vintage style pups which may help but even strat to lp, the same settings sound good
