Well what effect do you like ? Anyway I would really suggest you to buy a wah pedal , Crybaby 535q or similar...Its a really must have pedal for many genres and also really fun to use!

Do you need more distortion out of your Marshall? Do you like how Marshall drive sounds? I think with a DS1 or DS2 you will not get a nice pedal that you can boost your Marshall drive. On the other hand if you need DS1 and DS2 to practice with them on the clean channel on bedroom volumes it's OK to buy them, they are good only for that.
If you like your Marshall drive channel and just wanna make it more distorted, I suggest getting Tubescreamer TS9, and try to buy a modded one, to resemble to TS808. The other option (that I use currently) is SD1, nice mild overdrive that can serve as a booster for Marshall as well. As far other pedals goes, if you don't need distortion, get a wah or delay pedal.

Playing grunge as you do there's a pedal called Grunge from Digitech. I have that one, I'm not too fond of the grunge settings but a little dialed back it gives the sweetest 80's hard rock tone which is more useful to me

QUOTE (Wh1skey @ Aug 26 2008, 03:40 PM)  Thanks for all the responses I like my amp's overdrive effect, really nice. When gain is on MAX, it's a bit too much and messy, besides that it's ok, i like how it sounds. But, it's not a pedal, you know, so, because I need to switch from clean to disorted, or whatever, I need a pedal! Yeah i need metal distortion (distortion = overdrive?), delay isn't needed.. Uhm, Crybaby or DS-1?  The price difference is pretty huge though..Do you have a footswitch for your amp , so you can switch between clean and overdrive channels ? That way you don't need a pedal Between Crybaby and DS-1 I would not choose much  Wah is a very good effect and you can find a lots of use of it in songs etc , and its just fun to practice it and play

There's the Digitech DF-7, which I have never tried but has really good reviews, and it models 7 different pedals from metalzone to overdrives, muff etc.
If I were to get a distortion pedal, I'd get the DF-7. have you considered getting a multieffect box instead of a pedal? Something like a POD or a Pandora, they deliver great tones plus a load of effects. (For home use). -------------------- Guitars:

No, my amp doesn't have a foot switch. And the thingie is, when I go to studio I don't play with my amp
With pedal just settin' warm clean sound sounds easy <3

Ah so you need a pedal to play in a studio and at home. Well it should definitely be a distortion pedal then.
Well I would recommend DS1 for that, although DS1 can be pretty edgy and acquard sometimes. I suggest that you first try in a store several different pedals, like these here: Boss DS1 Boss SD1 Boss Mega Distortion Boss Metal Zone These are all different pedals and not expensive, so you should get a pretty good picture how every one of them sounds. Then you can choose the one you like the best, the choice is after all yours

To em, hte best pedal in the world is the Boss TU-2. But if you want something to help develop your sound and options I say a crybaby or a delaypedal should be it!
