So I jumped on a deal I found for a Jetter Johnny A pedal, which is a dual pedal with a GS124 and Traindrive in one box. It was an impulse buy and I was totally satisfied with my OD situation, so I'm not really sure why, but oh well.
Anyway, I've been through a lot of overdrives over the years, and all the usual suspects, but I'm floored at the sounds I'm getting from this pedal. Seriously, these two pedals are far and away the most tasty and musical overdrives I've ever heard. Even more, they are very unique and distinct. The GS124 is a totally different flavor than the Traindrive. The Traindrive side is very much like a great Billy Gibbons tone, sharp and rich and packed with harmonics but even at the high gain settings every note cuts through beautifully and there is no harshness anywhere.
I don't know a Dumble from a toaster but the GS124 is the richest creamiest thing ever. Every note is like an awesome cocoon of harmonic soft candy with a clean note center. Think of the perfect Soulshine tone. Sorry, I can't help thinking of these two drives in terms of food. Short story; if you get a chance, these two pedals are as juicy and thick and interesting and complex as anyone could want and they sound shockingly good. The stacked sounds are out of this world as well, just bigger than huge. Raise your hand if you've ever gone home for your lunch break just to play...
