brian_dc,

What band do you play in? You must be getting some seriously killer sounds with that amp/cab setup. I'd love to get my hands on a Bad Cat head, but for now, they're out of my reach financially.

Oh...and after nerding out with the guitarist from Nature/Nurture, I might pick up a Fulltone OCD pedal. Obviously I have all the gain I could ever want out of my Bad Cat and ENGL, but to have a subtle universal overdrive at my disposal would be sweet.



It's a great pedal. I usually hate OD pedals, as opposed to a good high gain amp, but the OCD sounds like a good cranked tube amp. It's very responsive to dynamics and changes in your guitar's volume/tone knobs. Can really clean up if you play lightly, then grind like a motherfucker when you dig in.

Only thing is, is that I find that, even at maximum gain, it still isn't quite enough for really heavy/saturated tones. This is why I run the Sparkle Drive before it, to push the OCD's front end a bit harder.


Yeah, I saw the gal from Kylesa running the OCD along with about 3 other overdrive pedals. For heavy music it's not exactly an electric ball massager.

I would probably use it just to get a more pushed clean sound than to really go for a high gain thing.

Oh, and the band thing. I'm in Mast http://www.myspace.com/mastusa


I love the Ampeg V4 sound, for the prices you can get them for they are so excellent.
