Another Megadeth fan, perhaps? I second the Tube screamer, but be sure to get the "vintage reissue" (IE the more expensive one) , the tone is better yeah bro, megadeth is my favorite band, your lucky to have got a pic with Mr. Mustaine , i met him at a gigantour signing, but i got all nervous and forgot how to speak, so i couldn't say hi or anything , but i met J.Lo and Glen and they were very nice question about the tube screamer, will it still work on a solid state amp?, sorry ifts a dumb question, im new to OD pedals since my old digital amp did that itself also, is it this one? http://www.guitarcenter.com/Ibanez-TS808-V...361-i1124276.gc |

My two faves are the Ibanez Tube Screamer and The Guv'nor 2 from Marshall.

It will still be high gain, but with a bit more "color" or gain or boost that you will notice.

I agree with Marcus, Tubescreamer is a very good choice, and also Guv'nor 2 is the pedal of choice for many metalheads I had chance playing with.
In addition to that, I think a good overdrive can come only from the amp, the pedals main function is to boost that overdrive sound. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

Definitely consider the Tubescreamer , so many people use it and will give you what you're looking for...And if you need something just for boosting (to make leads louder) you may want to look into MXR Microamp pedal.

I suggest you consider a smooth overdrive pedal for leads, to boost up your rhythm tone.

Would the Ibanez tube screamer work? That should work very well !! Also if you need just the volume boost you may consider the mxr micro amp pedal too! -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I'm sorry, another question
I was thinking of also buying a Boss Metal Zone pedal for a better rhythm sound, would an Ibanez tube screamer sound good over a Metal Zone? |
