Nice demo but i prefer MXR Dist+

[tomlikesacdc]

@aerodynamic3794 yeah ill have to agree with you completely, i play an MXR zakk wylde overdrive as my main overdriven tone

[spratty59]

Boss Drive and Distortion pedals are HORRIBLE!

[tomlikesacdc]

yeah I can't say im a huge fan of them either.

[sergeant137]

@tomlikesacdc horrible with a few exceptions, the SD1 is one of my favorite pedals, and the DS1 can be used as a cheap treble booster if set up right

[tomlikesacdc]

@sergeant137 i agree, i play on an MXR wylde overdrive and an ibanez ts9

[kingjoemom]

could you get a nice acdc or slash kinda of sound with the boss od-3 overdrive pedal?

[popomczowzow]

I just bought a DS-1 and it's pretty kickass

[supertrogdorman5252]

Are you playing a guitar with single coil pickups? It sounds like it...

[supertrogdorman5252]

I've got a Blues Junior myself. I also have the DS-1. It sounds pretty good with the FAT button turned on. My Blues Junior is the first one but mine has Sovtek tubes in it (The two big ones which I forgot the name of) which aren't normaly in a Blues Jr.

Hey guys I have a TS-9, DS-1, and a Blues Driver BD-2 should I get keely mod for the DS-1 or the BD-2 too?

[melancholyangelfish]

its sooooooooooo nice the ds-1, just wish there was twice as much gain, that then, would be the perfect distortion for me.

[Qoooba95]

prefer my ds-2 :D

[mikeygheetarz]

@wayfechylde3 absolutely i had keeley mod mine the tone had become so flexible, i was able to get anything from a SVR blues drive to a metallica distortion, unbelievable mod for sure, just look up demos and see.

[wayfechylde3]

@mikeygheetarz thats what ive heard. i had one a while ago, it made my tone seem really... small, flat, i guess? does the mod make that a lot better?

[fishmank27]

Hey thx for the demo, I assume it's not just me, but you are running that Blues Jr pretty dirty already, then using the pedals. I have a

similar setup (except a Blues Driver pedal,

no TS9) and find this is the only way pedals sound good in my amp, if I run them into a clean amp, they sound tinny or thin. I also have to roll back that tone knob. Would you agree or not? Suggestions?

[PabloDarioLi]

Can I replace a TS9 with a DS1 with litle amount of distortion as you showed? or better buy a expensive TS9?

[scarsonmybed]

For Marshall cranked tones try out BSIAB2 or 3, or Brownie!

DS-1 it's a lovely pedal btw very aggressive, Analogman can make it fly even faster!

but it will always lack of body and expression for solos... cheers!
