Any of you guys personally use and like any of the mini pedals?
Here's a size example ... http://www.mooeraudio.com/en/Product.asp?PClassID=25 I'm looking for an OD, lower gain preferably (but not clean boost) with at least a tone control. I don't care about the brand. I just need to put a very small 'carry-on' pedal board together. Guitar will be a Tele and amps will be backline and probably vary quite a bit. Thanks! - KL -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

I've never used them but i heard good things about these pedals. I can recommend Joyo Vintage Overdrive if you are looking for a cheap, good sounding overdrive.

I need 'small' due to severe space restrictions.
I have plenty of great ODs but I'm just curious if any of you guys have and use a micro sized overdrive ... and actually like it

QUOTE (Darius Wave @ Sep 23 2013, 03:18 PM)  As for overdrives...not much expirience...any try of stomp distortion ends up with removing it and going back to the amp regular distortion. Amp distortion is not an option for this. I primarily need a good clean tone. Fender DRs and Twins are my backline amps (single ch amps). Just looking for light drive on a couple of solos. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

Thats the very pedal I was going to suggest
 It's a very cool little pedal. I've owned one and for the size/price it's tought to beat. You will need a power supply but that shouldn't be a problem as your building a board. It sounds like a moded tube sreamer IMHO. Very flexible and lots of tone control. All around a fine unit.Todd [''''' quote name='klasaine' date='Sep 23 2013, 01:00 PM' post='659457'] Any of you guys personally use and like any of the mini pedals?

I'll be using a power supply (T-Rex fuel tank jr.) so no battery issues.

QUOTE (Darius Wave @ Sep 24 2013, 06:30 AM) I get it Ken! In fact the reasons are different - I don;t like Fender's dist channels, but simialar situaion. As I understand You need a completely independent floor rig also for a situation when You have to use an amp that's borrowed/ already on stage and similar? Partly, yes. The gig is primarily a 'clean' toned affair. I use delay and a volume pedal a lot and play mostly rhythm/accompaniment. There are a few songs that have solos and I need a bit of overdrive with some volume boost for those. The main issue is space. This board has to fit into a small, 'carry-on' (as in carry on to an airplane cabin) bag. *With my clothes for one or two days and an electric guitar over my shoulder. I can do it if I can find an acceptable mini OD. *So far these two are in the running ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JifhwkLw6s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjZHi9aMENo Both of them are lower to medium gain and they'll clean up when I back my guitar's volume down. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

You didn't like the MOOER Green Mile OD? I thought that was the one you were considering? I loved it. LIke a tube screamer but with more options and and range.

LIke a tube screamer but with more options and and range. I don't know yet. The Green Mile is certainly a contender. There's a shop near here that I 'think' has the complete line of Mooer pedals. I just need to get over there. Their Rumble Drive (on video) seems to be more of what I'm looking for. A little darker, retains more low end and cleans up nice when the guitar volume is rolled back. We'll see. If I can try before I buy, all the better. This post has been edited by klasaine: Sep 27 2013, 03:44 AM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

Hey Ken - I don't know if it's mini enough, but it sure is a great OD pedal - The Suhr Shiba Drive - have you ever tried it?

I have a Suhr 'Riot' (and I'd like a Shiba) so I know the quality of those pedals but alas ... too big for what I need. The ironic thing is that I'm an overdrive junkie. I have more crap than anybody needs but I didn't, (until yesterday), have one of those little 'micro' OD pedals. I'll take a picture of the size of the board when it's put together.
