I am primarily a bass player but as we haven't gigged for years due to my job, I tend to spend most of my noodling time on guitar. I have a Blackstar combo and a Joyo distortion pedal. I am completely underwhelmed with the Joyo and wondered if anyone had any recommendations as to which distortion is best. I just want a nice warm distortion. Not too metal or fuzzy but something that gives a nice lead sound. I don't want to spend hundreds of pounds as I am just playing in the spare room but still want a decent sound. Does anyone have any recommendations as to which pedal is best?

I really like the Boss OD-3 for a nice warm overdrive.

Having said that, lately I've been enjoying a couple of Joyo pedals: the American Sound and their tiny Orange Juice (from the Iron series). Mostly with a Telecaster, but they work very nicely with a twin humbucker PRS SE too.

It just wouldn't be right not to ask this...

I've just logged in for the first time, and when checking my profile I appear to have 1 warning point...  but I haven't said anything yet!
