The Plexi Tone with the bright switch off is much closer of your amp's second channel than the XTS Atomic. I totally agree with the usefulness of having dirt pedals to achieve a reference sound we have on a distorded amp. My base sound is a Marshall plexi 50W clone with volume about 8, and to recreate this kind of sound on a clean amp, I found that the Zvex Distortron is the best pedal for that Marshall-style sound, more versatile than the Box of Rock because of the subs settings and high gain option. Awesome pedal. Thanks for the great demos Pete, keep on rockin' !

Thanks Pete. The big things I learned in the past few months, and confirmed by your last two vids, is that it's all about getting a good base tone first-- and volume is key. For the past couple of years, I have been trying to use my amp at volume 2 and purchasing pedals in hopes they will sound good. As soon as I began to crank the amp to 4-5, the base tone sounded better and all the pedals sound completely different. Even the controls became much more responsive on the pedals.

I have never really been able to get a tone I like from an overdrive or a distortion pedal. That being said, what I do is the "colored boost" move, and I use everything from a Love overdrive to a Tube Screamer (TS-808) or even a Super-D, but I always dial back the gain to just barely above minimum on the pedal. Combine that with a good tube amp at high volume, gain on the amp to taste, and it works for me. I was playing Mesa Dual Rects but that lacked versatility, and lately I've been pretty consistent with JCM-800's and occasionally a Vox AC-30. I have a lead tone I developed with that one specifically. Plexi's work sometimes too, but I prefer the more smooth harmonics on the JCM-800. Great video as always, Pete! You make me want to experiment more.

Love your video's - they are top notch quality with excellent content. I am an amateur musician and I really appreciate your professional insight. The video's with you and Tim P. are some of my favorite. This video made me laugh because I watched your OD #2 video first and you mentioned a gear page thread about the back-handed compliment you received at the Gear Page where you make pedals sound very good and you make the drive pedals sound the same. The smile came when you made your Atomic and Plexitone in this example sound very close to the PT-100 channel #2. They did sound AWESOME and they did sound the SAME. This made my morning with a smile when I heard this second video. We mere mortals are digging your sound - keep up the good work. I love the little nuances that you show in tuning various knobs (gain or treble) and these are helping me to achieve better sounds.

I feel the same way. If your amp already has distortion built in, like a Boogie or Bogner, you don't need a distortion pedal and it's just overkill to use one and you run the risk of your tone becoming sonic mush. I prefer to only use a distortion pedal on something that doesn't have a built-in pre-amp like a Fender Twin Reverb or similar. I got really great results with a FTR and an EHX Big Muff PI.

Loved this video, some pedals sound better on a dirty amp, others a clean amp. And it matters what type of music you're playing.

It's really taken me too long to figure that out in this world.

Great stuff, Pete and all very useful. Just a suggestion - Adding a compressor just before your distortion pedal on a clean channel will create a very close if not functionally exact sound as the naturally compressing high gain amp channel. So, if you don't have a high gain channel or amp, try this.

That Plexi box is pretty accurate! Whilst not radically different from your 'reference' amp distortion, it has a really distinctive sizzle (that you mentioned), which is highly reminiscent of Malcolm Young's intro to, say, If You Want Blood You've Got It, off the Highway To Hell album... the muting the left hand automatically does when switching from chord to chord whilst the right hand is just chugging the riff, highlights that distinctive percussive sizzle; I'm impressed with that pedal! To be honest, I've never even seen one to demo, maybe its a rarity; I'm in Australia, but there's no shortage of pedal heads down here, so i'll keep my eyes peeled!

Pete thanks so much for your videos! It's funny how you described your technique of AB ing a great tone and then trying to get that from a pedal. I totally agree and when I find a pedal that can do that I'm so happy. Then of course I run a modeled sound so I take my sound to a venue with a house PA and the crap shoot starts all over again. I use the RK5 as my reference tone because that thing sounds good through most set ups with minimal tweaking. I bought the RK5 after watching your video and it was the best. I'm trying to copy the sounds as you described using an AB and a zoom g5n. It's really close. We will see when I play live again. Thanks again for what you do Pete! Your passion is great! 🙏

I've actually found something interesting (at least I find interesting. I don't hear anyone talking about it. Maybe it's an unspoken rule) but I've found that most amps have a dirty Chanel (or single Chanel) that use overdrive. And overdrive onto overdrive, it makes a really nice overly crunched sound going into distortion territory. But if you have a distortion going into overdrive, it doesn't sound very good. A little fuzzy and undefined and extremely saturated. Really good for nothing, unless you make that your sound. But if you have overdrive going into distortion, it sound amazing. So if you have a distortion pedal, and have your amp on the crunch Chanel, run your guitar straight into the amp, then the pedal in your Fx loop of your amp, you get the same thing. The amp boosts the pedal, and it sounds great. If you haven't done it, try it.

Pete, have you ever tried running a very compressed sounding distortion(like a DS-1) into the front of a fairly crunchy amp? I found I can get something cool by running the level on the pedal lower than the volume of the guitar pickups and with a good bit of distortion dialed in. It gets a really cool EJ singing lead type sound with the tone rolled off and some delay added. Since the signal is already distorted and compressed from the amp, it just smooths things out and gives me a really squishy fat lead sound without losing any volume. Your mileage may vary!

I bought that pedal and tried and tried to dial it in but it sounded horrible, it was noisy A.F. and I could never really get it to sound good. Was I doing something wrong or is that normal? Do you use a noise gate or would you suggest that in the case of using an overdrive on a dirty channel? I ended up getting the KHDK Dark Blood which has a noise gate built in and sounds Amazing, but I'd still like to find a way to get that Zakk Wylde sound because I'm a huge fan.
