do you have any brands of hand blown glass to check out?

I bought both of mine from a local glass blower. It's been so long I can't remember his name.

Not OD but worth mentioning:

Yeah that thing is sweet looking but it's out of my price range, even used, also I havent been able to locate one locally to try. Plus I could get like 3-5 pedals for that price.

I hear you. To me the key takeaway was chaining two compressors. 1176s (or any other FET) is ridiculous but you can experiment with a couple of VCA compressors.

When I play slide I find that ODs tend to mush things up. On my board I stack a TC Electronic Spark Boost into a Boss GE7 for pushing my amp. On slide I usually just use the TC.
The TC is more of a colored boost than an OD.
Easy enough to try they are pretty cheap.

Weird glitch? Just hit the 'new posts' button and you only see recent threads.

Might have also been accidentally looking at "similar threads"?

It's in "new posts" now.

Me: neck pickup, glass slide, roll the volume back with some gain from the amp, use fingers on the right hand. Imperfect to be sure, but gets me in the neighborhood.

Anyone try a Rangemaster?

i dont love a rangemaster for slide. i play a lot of slide, and have a sweet rangemaster clone, and thats not what i want for slide. i want a touch of compression and a full sound. i usually use a glass slide and my fingers, not a pick.

Never been able to use a treble booster, neither when I played with full on amp, I've always liked a TS style more for the purpose

We have a song on the new album that I play slide on. It is my same high-gain setup with the VOL rolled back a bit to control feedback

My good friend Paul Rose.
The Zappa is strong in Paul.
Here’s his first explorations into the Hughes and Ketner 5W Head - red box out to the computer, no compression.
2.14 - Wow.
