Hi guys. Newbie here. For the last 10 years I've been a rhythm guitarist and singer for various cover bands. I've got a new band together and we are starting rehearsing to gig later this year. I'm playing most of the lead stuff. Mainly playing indie stuff (Oasis/Blur etc), so nothing too difficult lead wise. I've been watching videos about pedals on YouTube and have come out realising I probably know even less now than I did when I first started watching them. I currently have an overdrive pedal but I'm wanting to know what I can use to up my sound for the solos. Does a boost pedal do the trick or would I need a second overdrive pedal? Currently using a Boss ds-1. Any help would be great.
