 Distortion pedal
What's your favorite distortion pedal? I'm in the market and need some opinions.

A long time ago, I had an EH Big Muff that I thought was pretty amazing. Hard to say what I'd think of it nowadays.

Ha ! Ya, I only had one long ago. only two pedals in my life, really. The distortion and a wah. I will get a wah again. At the time, they (fuzz-tone) all sounded like Purple Haze wan-a-be.

ive found good sounds in the boss blues driver very versatile, clean distortion i also have the ibanez smash box, a bit raunchy but good for heavy metal and the boss ds-1 is pointless in my pedal board but does make a decent fuzz pedal, should you need it; i would like to mod it one day to make it a bit more punchy |

I always liked the Boss DS-1 and any of the Boss OD pedals.

I've been using the MXR Zakk Wilde OD, although it's not technically a distortion pedal. It can scream like the Ibanez TS909. It's good for country and blues type OD and sometimes an occasional classic rock song. I might get the EH Big Muff Pi for the distortion and sustain. I bought one back in 1977 for $29.99 (that was expensive back then).  Might have to get another one.
