My New Distortion Pedal?

[Old Joad]

Every time I go to Seattle, my first stop is a secondhand music store called The Trading Musician.
I'm looking around at the effects pedals and I see this box with grunge distortion written on it, and of course I have to buy it.
Got this puppy home and plugged it in to my amp and it just about shredded my speakers.
So yesterday morning after my neighbors went to work, I played a quick bass riff and sat down to my drums and then set up my Les Paul and jammed out for a few hours,
and then I thought what the heck I'd share it with you good folks on the cakewalk forums.

I'm playing a Fender P Bass through a Fender Rumble 200 Amp and mic'd up with a SM 57.
And a Les Paul into the Digitech Grunge Distortion Pedal:
and then into an Ernie Ball JR. Volume Pedal:
and then into a Boss DD-3 Digital Delay Pedal:
and then into my Fender Mustang GTX 100 Amp
mic'd up with a SM 57:
Threw some guitar chorus to the left because it sounded a little empty. (It's basically a three-piece band)
Recorded using Cakewalk by BandLab.

I echo the comments above.  Nice playing and I really like the attack and sustain on this pedal.  Oh  yes, the bass sounds good also!

You just can't beat a good pedal!  Good song and a good demo that went by very quickly.  I'm gonna play this a few more times.

Suitably Grungy.

Powerful and clean (distortion clean if you know what I mean) - good tight work.

[bats brew]

i think i need a grunge pedal!

that totally does the  trick, eh?

it's not exactly fuzz, but it is...

like if you dialed a fuzz in with a parametric EQ

 

nice groove there joad!

just throw a vocal on top, and you've got a finished 70's style arrangement with the grunge tones!
