Boss Metalcore - My pedal of choice of Distortion. Can get a nice crunchy rock sound, or a distorted as fuck metal sound.

These guys are morons. You stick a metalcore in front of a windsor it will sound like absolute crap. How do I know? Because I have both.

For the windsor, i suggest getting a ts9 or ts808 tube screamer pedal or something close to it.

for the spider, honestly youre probably better off getting that floor switch they have. it adds a bunch of new effects, not just more distortion.

Honestly, one of my favorite "normal" distortions is the DS-20. The only problem is its a bit noisy, so it doesnt get absolute kudos from me.


Anyway, windsor with a ts9 in front of it

Heres the foot swtich for the line 6

More importantly, what kind of sound are you trying to get... whats a similar sound youre going for?

How about fuck you? Just because YOU don't like it doesn't mean i'm a moron because I have what I consider a great distortion sound. Regardless of what you have instead, don't get lippy.
