Have a look at the various Boss pedals. They are rather cheap, but really do well. I think their OD is like 75 bucks

very good klon clone, should be 20-30 bux

#

boss has SD-1

#

if you want something slightly gnarlier there's tubescreamers, Joyo has "Vintage Overdrive" and Behringer has "TO-800 Vintage Tube Overdrive" which are tubescreamer clones, should be around 25 buxx each

digitech bad monkey on reverb, you can find them around 50-70 dollars, but if thats too expensive then go with the ones the people above me noted.

The Joyo vintage overdrive is amazing and it’s only about $35 USD on Amazon, but I’ve only really used it on bass so I can’t really speak to its effectiveness on guitar, but from my experience it’s an amazing tubescreamer-like overdrive pedal.

Look at the Cinders OD pedal from Tc electronic. I got mine for like 30$

i bought some cheap ass pedals from behringer a while back, and they’re actually not all that bad. but they’re basically just boss pedal knockoffs

#

The behringer line of pedals is amazing

#

I love the sound of the blues driver, but it was too expensive. I bought the behringer version and it’s the exact same for 30$

The TC Electronic Dark Matter is also solid

#

And used Boss DS-1s are like $40-$50 a pop

#

Most pedals are cheaper used

The Caline Pure Sky is one of the best sounding overdrives for it's price on the market. While it was based on the sounds found in the Timmy Overdrive pedal, we put it up against the Vemuram Jan Ray Overdrive which is also based on the same pedal but is at the more expensive side of the market. We both felt like there wasn't much in it, which ...

all in all, what I have found so far this and joyo vintage overdire ( ts style ) get much love

#

kindred aurora
#

I'm kind of guy that don't mind spending money on quality..but I'll try to squeeze and find best possible thing for the money I am willing to pay 😄

kindred aurora

Entirely fair

vague estuary

vague estuary

vague estuary

mooer pedals are alright. they're all compact, made of metal, and 30 bucks a pop

vague estuary
#

heard that too

#

At that price point I would look at TC Electronic pedals which are a good bang for the buck and used. Behringer can be a bit hit or miss

#

Electro-Harmonix also makes a boost around $50, although the TC Electronic boost should be ok

#

Some of their pedals have been hit or miss I'm saying

#

so I usually go for TC Electronic, who is a pretty safe bet

kindred aurora
#

I haven't heard about them being hit or miss

#

The reverb pedal for example was a miss

kindred aurora
#

Compared to the Boss reverb?

#

it didn't entirely turn off for one

#

Apparently behringer casings are durable plastic? It’s the internals that might not last?

#

Plastic isn’t automatically weak lol

#

idk...I just know that behringer are boss copies
