new to me OR50

Post by dirtyhesher603 » Mon Feb 19, 2018 3:33 pm

so I recently purchased an OR50 from reverb, over the weekend I finally got to let her breathe through my 412 and actually get her up to volume with my drummer and am blown away....that thing is a beast and sounds amazing. My question is aimed to people that have experience the one....just curious what your experience with OD/FUZZ PEDALS is, I would like to slowly pick some up to just to mess around with. First pedal I was looking to pick up was a black arts pharaoh, any input would be greatly appreciated (even out side of ODs and fuzz's, id love to hear about experience with other pedals, tubes, etc.)

I think the OR50 takes pedals very well.
I used the EP boost, a Keeley Java treble boost and even used my old 80’s Proco Rat.
Keep the distortion down on the pedal and it sounds great.

The pharaohs have a great reputation with Orange amps, though I've never tried it myself

I have a clone of a way huge red llama, I love it. Really great fuzz for leads. Very transparent and organic.
