![]() ![]() Joyo Ultimate Drive – Too dark and twitchy.Here’s a quick rundown of my search up to this point. I’d already found the perfect boost pedal, the incomparable Danelectro Cool Cat Drive V2 which is always place after the main OD for a solo gain/volume boost. I didn’t want to spend a fortune so my search began experimenting with clones before moving onto others. I needed enough gain for controllable feedback but still with the ability to clean up on the guitar volume if need be. I wanted to try and get as close as possible to the amp drive tones I was used to sustain, warmth, but also bite, dynamics and versatility. This of course necessitated the purchase of an overdrive pedal, something I’d never needed before. After being spoilt with fantastic overdriven amps in the past, (Marshalls, Oranges and last but not least my Cornford Roadhouse 30 combo), I decided to simplify my setup, and instead of using the OD channel of my amp and it’s FX loop for delays etc, I decided to purchase a decent clean valve amp, (the Fender Blues Junior III) and run my Epiphone ES-335 PRO + pedals straight into the front.
