Subtle warm drive pedal

[StrummersOfThunder]

Have become increasingly comfortable with using a drive pedal, particularly with my Gretsch.
At the moment I have a catlinbread tweed voiced pedal 5f6.
I'm keen to explore one or two more options.
Definitely not high gain territory more just some colour and harmonic depth.

Any suggestions of something that would play well with filtertrons, JM/jag single coils and fender circuits +/- vox ac15 ?

Probably a bit too low rent for you but the Joyo Sweet Baby is a lovely OD for this kinda thing, and cheap as! https://www.guitarstuff.co.nz/pedals.html

Thanks,
I could always order some unicorn gizz separately ?

I use a TC Cinders for this sort of thing into a Blackface. Sounds good with Strat and PAFs, dunno bout Filtertons. Stacks well. Doesnt add bass tho, if thats what you mean by warm. Its neutral, just sounds like your amp, but with overdrive

I’m selling a Gladio, which is prime rich warm Dumble territory…

I’ve got something you might want to try- a Nobels ODR-1. They’re really rather nice, and not the typical thing. Plus it’s bright green.

Consider Reg's tweedmanium, his take on the les luis. I have a Mk1 and like it a lot.

This is what the sweet baby is a clone of, the focus control is a gem IMHO.

I still have one of these... maybe even ex-Jeremy? It doesn't add much, if any, colour though. Nice, subtle, and dynamic (touch sensitive?) drive.

LOL it could be, I've owned at least 3 of them

You could try a Bronson? Happy to send one up for you to play with, no obligation

My current favourite though is this Jan Ray clone: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004028109388.html I have it set pretty subtle and it just makes my tone betterererer.

Through a Fender amp, I really really like my Klone. At even four times the $80 price, there’s nothing I’ve tried that’s as clear, warm, balanced and articulate. Including my real KTR Klon.
