    My solution is Boss Katana on 0.5watts set on Brown sound with guitar volume about half way up. If the sound is less than inspiring I drink one or two glasses of red wine. This helps me get to the edge of breakup — with my wife 😅

    Edge of break up, sounds nice! Stacking pedals, the right way. Thank You!

    Effectively, the 1st OD becomes the "amp" on the edge of breakup.

    One way to warm up an amp is to turn up the mids

    Unity light gain stacking is basically re inventing the cascading high gain amp, but much more personalized, with 2^N channels, so long as you dial it in.    Which is a good thing.   When all the stages are still outputting in the "interesting zone" of the next stage, the volume knob and pick attack retain a lot of control through the stages.   Hence, great cleanup along with tight (or whatever you sculpt to) high gain.

    I do the same thing with a Boss Blues Driver, using that as the always on. However, I use it at the end of my chain (just before my buffer) and treat it as a part of the amp, into which I stack other drives.

    My favorite setup in front of my Fender amp is a DOD 250 preamp pedal followed by a Timmy clone pedal. I use the same method to dial both of them in. Thank you for sharing this, I feel like this is one of those gold nuggets that not many really share or talk about.
