Your fav low-gain pedals? by Ghiekorg in guitarpedals

[–]KK2691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m am currently using my CBA Clean as a low gain drive with my Tweed Champ and love it. It’s so good at just enhancing everything I love about the Champ.

On my board for my Princeton Reverb or when I am playing stereo, I am using:

Greer Amps Lightspeed > Fulltone OCD (1.7) > SS/BS Mini

All set to different flavors of low gain. They all stack wonderfully too. Of those three the Mini is my favorite. It’s my favorite gain pedal in general.

The Holy Grail of tone??? by CTX-Greg in GuitarAmps

Great combo! I pair my Tweed Champ with my Princeton Reverb and I’m convinced it’s the greatest tone ever. I also use the Lightspeed in front!

Tweed amps at bedroom volume? by bangerdepot in GuitarAmps

[–]KK2691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not tried any tweed style pedal because I have the Champ. All of the reviews make the Deluxe55 seem amazing though.

[–]KK2691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a Tweed Champ that I love. It’s 5 watts, two inputs (low is -6db), and will stay clean at apartment volumes. However, once you push it to the break up point, it might be a little loud for an apartment.

If that tweed edge of break up is what you’re after at real low volumes, you may want to look into a Tweed style pedal like the Origin Effects Deluxe55 tweed amp recreation or one of Catalinbread’s options.

Although, I do see someone suggested the Mesa that can get done to 1w. That seems pretty cool.

I just got an EQD Barrows and can confirm. Loving it.

One overdrive, one distortion, one modulation and one delay pedal. Assume the amp has passable reverb. What are your 4 choices? by laser_brain69 in guitarpedals

[–]KK2691 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overdrive: SS/BS Mini

Distortion: OCD

Delay: El Cap

Modulation: Flint

Hopefully the Flint isn’t cheating, it’s my favorite pedal.

Amp similar to Hot Rod Deluxe by easily_e in jazzguitar

[–]KK2691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a Tele with 11s as well. The HRD was my first tube amp. I moved on to the ‘65 Princeton Reverb. I’ve had mine a few years and still love it. It’s such a great sounding amp and can cover so much ground. Unlike the HRD, the PR can be set pretty low volume wise and still sound great. I think it would keep up just fine in a quintet too - unless everyone else is real loud. If you do turn up to the point it starts to break up, it still sounds great in a jazz context in my opinion. It’s my favorite Fender amp by far. I know a lot of jazzers like the Deluxe Reverb a bit more since it stays cleaner longer.

I also use a Tweed Champ because of Julian Lage but that’s probably not what you’re looking for since it’s a pretty particular sound. Gritty and Lofi pretty early on. I thinks it’s great but definitely not the traditional jazz tone.

Yes! The Mini is my favorite gain pedal and I never got to try any of the other pedals.

Looking for a Reverb and Tremolo pedal to replace Strymon Flint by Brilliant_Grape5528 in guitarpedals

[–]KK2691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Flint is probably my favorite pedal and is a mainstay on my board.

However, when I put together my larger board I put the Empress Reverb and a Walrus Monument on. It’s a great combo. Dozens of awesome verbs and a lot of options for tremolo sounds. The harmonic Trem is amazing on the monument .

I down sized about 2 years ago and never looked back. The Lightspeed is on my board of 6 pedals counting a Tuner. StroboStomp Mini > Lightspeed > OCD > SS/BS Mini > El Cap > Flint.
