Pedal advice GNR

[sgmypod]

Have a 50w valve amp el34 based will do crunch...but not much higher gain, for stuff like you could be mine what pedal would people recommend.

[Twinfan]

Marshall Guv'nor or Tonerider British Distortion or MI Audio Crunch Box...

[sgmypod]

you got all of the above

[Twinfan]

No longer got the Crunch Box, still got the other two.  Guv'nor is more gritty, Tonerider is very similar to the Crunch Box, if not identical.  A bit smoother.

[sgmypod]

which has best bass end

[Twinfan]

Neither - lots of gain and lots of bass = super flabbiness.

[sgmypod]

reword this...don't like over thin, over top treble sounding pedals...

[Twinfan]

Crunch Box or British Distortion would probably suit you better then!

[sgmypod]

cool will have a look out for both..see if can get one at a good price

[hunter]

Going for GnR you will have to do without a lot of bottom end/lower mids. That tone is all about upper mid crunch.

OCD would be great into a dirty amp, but it's not that cheap.

MXR - 10 band EQ put in the loop?
Think that may have been used on a lot of the use your illusion stuff

[sgmypod]

already a have a ocd..is not quite there for me

[Plexi Ken]

Not used one but how about Rothwell Hellbender?

[HTH AMPS]

MI Audio Crunchbox for sure - owned one and it did that kind of thing great.

Or, you could simply use a SD-1 into your Laney GH50L - that should get you there.  An MXR 6-band EQ would be a cool way to get that tone too.

I could swear I remember him going on about MXR Distortion+ in an interview I read somewhere. Also try an older RAT pedal.

I'd avoid anything Tube Screamer derived as I don't think that will give you the sound.

I think you'll generally struggle unless you've got a big Marshall running at a very loud volume.
