Guys can you give me short list of good distortion pedals claiming they are "marshall sounding"? Just want to have a list so I can check reviews for my next purchase.. Can't access gearpage here Please don't keep replying SH and crunchbox haha, already on the list for research. Not really into an specific "marshall amp sound" just want to get into that territory. Not into metal btw.
Catalinbread DLS MKIII
Wampler Plexi-Drive/Plextortion
Fulltone OCD
Menatone The King
If you want specific marshall tones disregard the bottom two.
Catalinbread DLS MKIII vs Wampler Plexidrvie/Plextortion:
Though I'd be bias here when I say Catalinbread wins all the way,you might want to believe me when you hear for yourself, You'll have a very amp-like saturation,dynamic gain stages and two sweet voicing and real-est amp tone in a box,high headroom with an 18v juice,but you almost have everything at 9v. Wampler's Plexidrive/Plextortion might be tactile at some gain level,crunch tones are "Plexi" like nonetheless,but things gets muddy with the bass boost and does not meld well with a lot of drives like how catalinbread does.
Price:
Catalinbread DLS MKIII is cheaper
Menatone The King vs Fulltone OCD
These two are distortion pedals made to emulate certain amps drive stages but with some identity crisis, this could be fine if you're just seeking out vintage tones reminiscent of an era defined by "MARSHALL" because they have it in them that you only need to search for it. Fulltone OCD compliments your rig well but the tone you'll get is screaming "Jack of all trades,master of none" and "Bitin" at some point maling-mali yung advertisement nila regarding the OCD,the menatone on the other hand is a different kind of beast with the on-board EQ you can dial in some sweet stuff with this one and it as responsive to touch as the one's pimps call as "Sariwa".
Price:
Menatone The King is cheaper(But take note B'new needs some 1-2 weeks build time)
