what pedal am I ?

EricTheWeary

I am an amp in a box type overdrive for running into a clean amp.
I am NOT a TS style overdrive.
I am surprisingly open minded about being Marshall, Vox or Fender flavoured but am capable of crunchy, bluesy tones and nothing really modern rock.
I run off a standard 9v supply.
I actually have two footswitches. One is for OD and one is for boost. If need be my boost side can work alone as a clean boost.
I am not huge. If I can I like fitting in a space no bigger than a couple of standard Boss style enclosures.
I am not from a boutique maker only previously heard of on TGP. Yet I am not a cheap Chinese knock off who will develop a fault.
I know that a seperate OD and boost pedal set up would have some advantages over me but I like the idea of being a single twin pedal nonetheless.

The holy grail.

I don't know, but I'd certainly buy one.

The Box of Rock fits the bill except that is only does Marshall Flavours

The GT500 fits the bill, but isn't all that "ampy"

The Tech 21 Double Drive would probably fit the bill.

The Bogner Blue fits the bill, but is very expensive.

I thought about the Bogner Blue, but the boost can't work independently. The T-Rex Gristle King is spot on in format, but not really amp like (prob based on a TS anyway).

If you don't know what pedal you are, what chance do we have? ;-)

You could do it with 2 boss pedals (chosen so it will be stupid reliable). A power stack and the voxy combo drive. Both sound great.

viz

Ibanez Jemini

Fulltone GT500 was my first thought. Or one of the various Wampler double doohickys?

This pedal is too complicated for me.

BB+ or AC+?

But that's a reverb!

From some reviews maybe Empress Multidrive comes close but haven't used it myself.

ToneControl

I thought Ethos

but that's not really covering Voxy Marshally

worth mentioning if people haven't heard of it

frankus

Fulldrive?

I had thought with the BOR you couldn't use the boost separately but a quick look says you can. I had a Distortron (spll?) which was great in many ways but it always wanted to be a bit rockier than I wanted it to be.

The Double Drive seems to only exist in the X3 MOD version now. Not a stupid price off Thomann but possibly does more than I need. Hmm.

No kidding on the price of the Bogner, although does seem to be a thing of loveliness, and @not_the_DJ says the boost doesn't work alone ( not clear from the Bogner website). Oh, and don't google Bognor Blue, that's a strange path...

Yes, pretty sure it is TS based as I've looked at those before.

Like the Dual Fusion for example, good suggestion.

Oh look there's a link in my sig ;-)

It can be used that way (drive and boost) with one of the channels set to low gain high volume.
