Morning all,
After unsuccessful hunting for JCM 808 (still keep my eyes open) I opted for Marshall Class 5 Combo...for bedroom / garage use.
What can I say - great little beast!!!
Anyway, I generally play AC/DC stuff, so normally straight to Aamp cranked up and let the valves do the job.
However, this amp mainly shines when wide open which is not always possible.
Last night we played @ 11pm in our garage so the volume was at 9 o'clock tops.
So no overdrive... Therefore am thinking of getting some pedals to boost/overdrive/distort it at lower volume.
What pedals would you recommend??
I will be getting anyway Fulltone OCD, xotic booster or tube screamer, but looking for:
a) OD pedal which could give me that ACDCish sound at low volume (not sure if OCD will do it??)
b) distortion to get Black Sabbath ish sound at lower volumes
C) maybe some reverb / delay pedal(s)
Is there anything suitable there??
Is it achievable at all??
Thanks for your suggestions.
Chris
