"Hello this is Bill Macpherson for Expert Village we'll talk a little bit about more the overdrive we we're talking about on the amplifier. Now a lot of things that pertains to you is maybe an overdrive pedal or distortion box, I prefer the distortion box but I do keep the distortion box very low on it, more use it as an overdrive pedal now it will give you a different sound than your amp will. The amp is a little more dirty I got turn it up here to about 7 or 8 and you can see how it's dirty, verses now I got to turn the drive down on the amp before I use the pedal.
