Suggest me a good boost pedal for my JSX

Looking to add more agressiveness and edge to my JSX's amber channel. Thanks.

Someone suggested a Maxon 808OD. Is this a good pedal for boosting my JSX?

I use an SD-1 with my 5150.

Maxon OD808.

SD-1's sound sterile and solid state in comparison. The TS-9 has that shitty pedal and a near invisible LED, as well as not sounding as sweet.

What about the Bad Monkey? I've been using it alot lately, and it sounds great.

Not cheap, and I never tried it through a JSX, but I like the Fulltone OCD. Awesome distortion pedal and adds to my Dual Rectifier rather than take over it [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

MXR ZW-44

Here are some choices. All of these WILL work great.

Ibanez TS9DX
MXR ZW-44
DOD 250
DOD YJM308
Keeley modded SD-1
Maxon OD808
Twisteramps has a modded Ibanez TS7 for sale in the classifieds that would work perfectly for you. They have very nice internals. I have worked on several of them. Nice pedal.
MXR Distorion + with the gain dialed way down. Mine works great.

I have an SD1 and a Bad Monkey and would recommend either one

Z. Vex Super Hard On is the best that I have heard.
MXR Micro Amp is cool too.

These are true "boost" pedals that simply slam the front end of your amp a bit harder without adding color to the tone.
Most people have been recommending overdrive/distortion pedals that will definitely color your tone, like any of the TS-808/TS-9 clones will add a mid hump, etc.

Hey bro, you say the JSX doesn`t have enough gain or grind? I am interested in this amp, but I nead it to do Slayer-old Metallica type stuff. Jack.

I just want to make that second channel a little bit more agressive sounding.

Those new "Cooltronix" or whatever cool tube pedals are amazingly cool, and definately worth checking out. They feature a real 12AX7 tube!
