This page discusses using distortion pedals to provide distortion - for use as a boost, see the [[Boost|Boost page]]. Also, while ''overdrive'' and ''boost'' are synonymous, some distortion pedals are designed to provide a distortion tone that mimics an overdriven vintage amp and called ''Overdrive Distortion'' - this page covers them in that respect.
== Popular Models ==
The most popular pedal I know of is the ''Boss DS-1''. Steve Vai and Joe Satriani have actually used these as their main distortion tone, run through the clean channel of a tube amp. There are numerous popular modifications to this pedal you can [http://www.instructables.com/id/Modify-Your-Boss-DS-1/ find online], such as the Keeley Mod.
