I have 2 danelectro overdrive pedals but neither seem to give much kick. Can anyone advise me of a pedal to use to make it sound a bit more full?

[font=trebuchet ms]The Boss OD-20 covers just about anything you could want, but you might find it cheaper to try replacing your guitar's volume pots. If they're 250k, go to 500k. If they're 500k, go to 1 Meg. If they're 1 Meg, go back to my suggestion about the Boss OD-20![/font] :)

One of my first overdrives was a danelectro T-Bone distortion/overdrive..saying it simply sucked would be an injustice to the word.The names are ridiculous too...Black Coffee Distortion?Fish n' Chips EQ?Are we playing guitar or ordering something to eat?Damn danelectro for all his ugly colored,cheap plasic,dumbass named pedals!
