What amp are you using?

I personally HATE distortion pedals, i think they all sound like crap. This is because so much of your overdrive tone is derived from the power in your amp.

I'd reccomend using your amp distortion, and setting it between 4-6, then putting a boss sd-1 on top of it with the gain between 1-3.

The mxr wylde OD is superior for this, but the switch has proved countless times to be very unreliable.
