try just putting a little chorus in with a blues driver or what ever distortion u like. that sounds drives me insane, but that's how u get it.

Well ive tried a little, and a lot of chorus with some distortion, even thrown in some tape echo and reverb, but still not what im looking for...if you crank on the reverb you can get something close, but not quite it...

you really need to try a VOODOO LAB,OVERDRIVE PEDAL.Thr overdrive is remarkable,and true.Use your amps eq,to get the sound you want,and let the overdrive rip!
