What are the 'must-try' list of low gain overdrives

Kebabkid · July 2023

I've had the Wampler Belle (mini pedal) for the last couple of months and it's basically a modified and improved
Nobels ODR-1 and i think it's great.

I also tried a friend's MXR Timmy (mini) and that, too, was very good and worked well with a boost pedal hitting it or if using 2 of the same pedal on different gain settings.

Both pedals have good EQ, sensible gain ranges and are versatile. From the past, I've liked the Liquid Sunshine V2 and the Way Huge Pork Loin

A shout for the Great Eastern FX Small Speaker Overdrive. The 'champ' sound increases as you crank the gain, but at low gain settings, it's a beautifully responsive light OD with a tweed edge.
