At what point do you say -- enough is enough..

Nice selection! I notice neither one of us share the same pedal except a DS-1 (doesn't count lol). We have more work to do.

Heh, good thing I've bought an Eisenhower since, among others. Wasn't it you I recommended that to? My brain is getting foggy.

I get that. Amp gain is cool, and maybe it's why I'm more drawn to the tube gain pedals in general. I've just always been more of a clean base tone/pedal guy since I started. I've grown more into liking eob base tones though, and just taking it further with a pedal. Fuzz is a different beast entirely. It's that thing... and you can only get that thing from a pedal (or a vintage amp that's about to explode lol).

That’s where I have landed as well. I picked up a Friedman Twin Sister about a month ago, and even though it has more than enough gain to handle anything I would do it just LOVES drive pedals. My base tone is essentially AC/DC, which is what the Friedman was made to do.

I need to fire up my Runt 20, it's been a minute!
Yep, the perfect breakup tone to me is like a BF Bassman or tweed Bassman/JTM45 thing. They love pedals too.

That sound has been buried deep in my DNA since the sixth grade, when I convinced my mom to buy me Back In Black. As such, I have a pair of Studio JTMs and the Twin Sister.

Leaving this thread open on the computer for my wife to "find"...this'll learn her what the real gear brain damage looks like!

I'm merely an amateur...and only slightly damaged

How many doubles of tools do you have?

...of drive/distortion/boost pedals? Not counting ones in my hardware modelers.
I'm doing a bit of organizing in my music space, and seems I have enough of these contraptions. Not sure.

What type pedals are you hoarding?

Well, Fuzz if you need help and need someone to talk about this you can always count on me.

Oh yeah.

I have gotten over my anti-distortion/boost pedal thing. I used to be a proper amp-only purist, but honestly the right boost, overdrive, or distortion, can completely bring a lifeless amp into its own. So I say, really you need one or two flavours of each family group. A TS, a Klon, an SD1, and maybe a RAT .... although I'm still heavily mired in anti-RAT prejudice!
