I am the gear/tone guy of the band. I do all the set-ups and things like that. However, my singer/guitarist has a '65 Deluxe Reverb and shes only been playing clean, until now where we introduced her to pedals, haha.

So her dad has a Jekyll and Hyde overdrive, but through the amp it sounds like...............DISCOOOOO ahhhhhhh. No, it sounds bad. So I put my Blues Driver in front of it, because I don't use it anymore, and it sounds OK, but it still doesn't sound good. I turned alot of the treble down, and put bass up and that cleaned it up some more. But it still sounds bad.

It's not good and punchy, like my Hot Rod Deluxe. And even when I use my tube screamer it sounds good, but on her amp...garbage...Any ideas?
