I would have loved to seen the actual pedal settings instead of a stock photo

[@tomijaroli8781]

I use my SD-1 with level max, about 3 o’clock, and just a touch of gain. You can experiment with them, it got just 3 knobs 😅

[@JeffWiersma]

@@tomijaroli8781 you can experiment with them if you already own them. But if you’re researching before buying, that isn’t possible.

[@chadherring2790]

If I were a betting man, wait I love gambling… anyways it’s likely level up all the way, gain down all the way (or almost), tone somewhere between noon and 3 o clock. Same way everyone’s been using these types of pedals for decades.

Seems like the SD1 would be more useful for lower tunings considering how bright it is

[@Stretchwreckedem469]

You could hear more dynamic character in the SD-1, i personally love gravitating towards that to boost a fluence moderns on both voices 1 and 2. You can hear the dynamic character of both voices a lot better with the SD-1, as well as a lot of other transparent overdrives and boosts.
I've been curious to try out an entirely clean boost like a Walrus Audio Warhorn or a TC Electronics Spark clean boost for some of my passive pickups and the fluence moderns. I use a Boss GT-1000 and usually boost my amp with the mid boost and i've been able to get my tones into Gojira territory with some of my guitars.

I love the sd-1 with my EVH Stealth. That pedal just slays on that amp!!!

[@jorgepoti1718]

Which version of the Stealth do you have? 50W or 100W?

[@Hadouken5150]

@@jorgepoti1718I don’t think it matters. All tube amps benefit from a boost. At least to my ears they do. I can’t stand unboosted guitar tones when it comes to the high gain stuff. The flubby stuff sounds gross 🤮

[@Urizen777]

SD-1 is such a great pedal!

[@whereandbackagain7059]

Sounds like either will work just fine.

[@craigwells5250]

I couldn`t hear a difference between them. Both sounded the same. Cool riffs bro...

[@wladdaimpala88]

Interesting that the pedals still work while switched off

[@SpaceJockey805]

They’re being used as a boost, homie, not the full drive. He’s only showing them for reference

Scratch the string and the puppy enters...😅

[@fiaskolo]

That's not very useful, coz they both sound very good. :)
