    My go-to guitar overdrive is the Fulltone OCD. It can be used for a little bit of boost or you can slam the front end of your amp with it for a lot of saturation. I like it because I still have playing dynamics even at higher gain settings and it's responsive to the volume control on the guitar.

    The Fulltone OCD (or any Fulltone pedal) is a solid one, too. It's tough just to pick a pedal without trying it out, though

    That's true.

    I spent a lot of time and money choosing pedals. There was a period of a few years where I bought over sixty effects pedals.

    Finding effects that favor your particular playing style, sound good with the the other pieces of the signal chain and inspire one to play creatively can be a delicate balance.

    Buying used was key for me as that allowed me to try a lot of combinations of effects at home with my rig. I was able to just reinvest the initial cost by trading or selling the ones that didn't make the cut and moving on to the next one.
