If you want to your amp to sound tighter, you use a TS9 . . . right ?

If you are playing heavy Blues, Blues Rock, Classic Rock, 80's Metal and modern metal and you want to tighten your amp, 99% of guitar players use an Ibanez TS9 / 808.
So, here is my question :
Is there an OD pedal on the market that tightens your amp way more than the humble TS9 ?
I am looking for a pedal to tighten an amp as much as technology can currently allow.

Much Appreciated.
 
the boss sd1 was the first pedal i used for that. there are a fair number of pedals that work for this, but an eq pedal is a great thing. boost certain frequencies, cut others, and boost level if ya want. a range master will tighten the bottom for sure
 
The metal crowd highly recommends these 2

Amptweaker- Tight Drive / Tight Metal:
Horizon Devices - precision drive.

They are ultra tight.

"the first modern overdrive made by guitar players for guitar players"

"redefines the boundaries of the standard “overdrive” with enhanced tone sculpting and advanced tone stacks"

Somebody needs to tell the marketing uncles that this is a turnoff.

These are particularly bad examples, I agree. AI, I am guessing. Thing is...how do you describe an overdrive using words that haven't been used a million times. Also considering, describing sound generally doesn't work.

'Yeah I see that. I was just a bit floored by these two one after another :)

"As much as technology can currently allow" would be a flexible EQ pedal. I like the VFE Standout for such purposes.
