Should I trade

a Boss overdrive for a Boss TU2 Chromatic Tuner? I have a Distortion pedal along with a compressor/sustainer and wonder whether I need both distortion and overdrive. I would like the tuner as it would make drop and flat tuning easier,as well as powering up my other pedals, and not having to unplug and tune then plug back in again, but wonder if I should just keep the overdrive too. Whadya think people? Are overdrive AND distortion needed, or is it redundant?

purely on economics it's a good trade unless it's some old japanese made overdrive or something.0

one can never have enough overdrive/distortion options.
but really, it's a solid trade, being in tune is more important. You can find more OD/dist pedals later and cheaper than that tuner.My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.0 -
don't hesitate making that trade...you're trading a 50 dollar pedal for a 100 dollar pedal."I'll do whatever the song dictates - if it doesn't need a real lead, then I won't do one. But if it does, then I'll fuckin' go off." - Mike

Playing out of tune sucks. Distortion won't fix that.0
