In today's episode of boost wars, SD1 and blues driver clone won out. I see a BD-2W in my future 

I used to be a 808 guy but I haven't moved off my sd1w in over a year (which is forever for me)In today's episode of boost wars, SD1 and blues driver clone won out. I see a BD-2W in my future![]()
I got this SD from you! I don't like SDs with anything else I've tried but it just works.I used to be a 808 guy but I haven't moved off my sd1w in over a year (which is forever for me)
Ah the all black one??I got this SD from you! I don't like SDs with anything else I've tried but it just works.
I really need to get a gig under my belt with it and go from there.SD-1 is great! BD-2 derivatives are also great. Love my Keeley version.
so how is the BD in a heavy setting?In today's episode of boost wars, SD1 and blues driver clone won out. I see a BD-2W in my future![]()
Honestly; not sure? It sounded great at low volume. Our next gig is here in 2 weeks but I'll probably use the SD1 for it? We'll seeso how is the BD in a heavy setting?
I...need to get my cabinet destination settled with this amp. I might just gig the dual EVHs this next go round and then figure out what channel/mode I am going to live in and then choose my boost from there.My SD-1 is so Frankensteined I really need to chase down a stock pedal just to remind myself how it sounds. This one was my test bed for learning about filtering and the effects of different clipping elements, which is why it’s loaded up with LEDs instead of the usual diodes. It sounds cool though.
The Fulltone Fulldrive is a good alternative for guitarists looking for more flexibility out of their SD-1. There are tons of other options as well.
Could it be the obtuse thread title?Not sure how I missed this thread, but congrats JT!
Or my obtuse intellect...Could it be the obtuse thread title?Thank you sir!

Holy smokes with some V30s, even in these semi-open back turd cabs; this amp fucking SLAPS![]()
With something like a Recto; it's almost like you (aka me) are trying too hard on purpose to find something completely different other than the official magic speaker bullet when you know you should just go with what worksYou're welcome.
So rude. Not even a Thank You to those of us who set you up with the epic Alley-Oop!

Good evening peeps. Had a ROUGH ass week. Not fun or good in the slightest. Yesterday was the pinnacle of saidToday; I woke up still in a bit of a fog and decided to get out of the house for some retail therapy. Much needed indeed.
Found something I've wanted on the FB turdplace and met up. Oh lordy! Apologies to @spawnofthesith @EOengineer and @la szum for not following through with my Mark whatever destiny we've been yakking about. I'll get back to it. It's fucking (2023 Blackout Special Edition) Recto time \m/Props to @Mongillo19 for the intermittent enabling on this particular model.

Price was right. It was basically new and never played 2023 model. I'm still Mark hunting but every one I want is 35 years old and scary. Or ASTRONOMICALLY priced. The Recto itch has been here for some time.
Now I need to fill those speaker holes in the Mesa cab that's been here for 3 years
Quick playthrough was exactly as expected. Holy fucking fuck. Chunk (even through my 112) for DAYS. Oof. Clean channel is GREAT as well as 2 and 3. Ran the VP4 through the loop and did my shitty Devin/Borland hybrid riffing and it was just smile city. Very pleased \m/
