Before I go and spend £300...

BintyTwanger77

I recently sent back the Strymon Riverside. Not because I didn't like it (very much the opposite), but because I broke my rule of not buying gear on plastic. I have Xmas money and a couple of pedals for sale, but here's the thing...

At the moment, I have the Fairfield Comp>Dr Scientist The Elements (using the low-gain/Cleanness side of things)>Friedman OD>Wampler Tumnus>Timeline>Space.

Now I've been playing around with Tumnus, and it is sublime, cuts through beautifully, gorgeous OD, and I don't want to let this one go. Is there another OD I can stack with it for medium gain sounds? Before I go and spend £300 on the Riverside, is there something else I could do here?

Timmy and Morning Glory would both fit that bill. Quite a broad question though what sort of tone are you after?

I used to like my Archer stacked with my Morning Glory.

I regret selling the MG.

Punkish medium gain, Stooges "I Wanna Be Your Dog", "Modern Life Is Rubbish" era Graham Coxon, Twilight Sad "Cold Days In The Birdhouse" (when it kicks in)... pretty disparate tones, I know, but a few examples of the kind of sounds I'd like (amp is a 65 DRRI, by the way).

Yeah, a Timmy kind of pedal is good with a Klone.

Thorpy peacekeeper 
has more gain on tap than you might thing and the EQ is brilliant- best pedal iv bought this year hands down

Along the Morning Glory vein I'd look at a Snouse Blackbox. It just so happens I have one for sale



I'm only selling as I have two! I absolutely can't say enough about it; and stacking it with an Archer sounds awesome - the Tumnus will probably be even better.

Interesting. Isn't there a V2 of this pedal as well that's just come out?

How about a Boss BD 2 Waza?

There is; another reason I'm selling one. Theres a standard like the video I showed you (i have an MXR size one, not the mini) then theres the Overdrive 2 which has a FET boost before the circuit you dial in (i also have one of these!) and THEN theres the Version 2 of the Overdrive 2, which has dip-switchable modes to go between classic Blackbox tones, Overdrive 2 tones, and also as just a clean boost. If that makes sense!

Unsurprisingly, I have the new one on its way to me. I plan on using one as a boost and the other as a drive - but I don't need 3!

The version 2 sounds like it would be of interest.

Looks like they've sold out - they've been selling them for $99 as an introductory offer so i'm not surprised.

ThorpyFX Gunshot or Peacemaker?

They stack great

The Peacemaker looks like it would stack with the Tumnus very well, and its EQ would come in very handy.

Good shout - I think the EQ on the Peacemaker is my favourite of the ThorpyPedals.

Easy to understand and very powerful in a good way

Picked one up on here and love it. Stacks v well. I'm using it with a warthog and together they cover pretty much gain sound I need.

Reckon it would pair well with a Tumnus.

Think so. Not tried it with anything similar but seems to stack well. Never really been a boss pedal guy but picked it up on here for the home board and v impressed.

Nobels odr-s all day long. 

I can lend you one if you like so it costs you fudge all to try?

That's a very kind offer, thanks.
