    Analog Pedals vs Digital Pedals

    Looking for some opinions: Analog pedals vs Digital. I'm a simple guy when it comes to my guitar sound, but I'm not very adept at dialing in what I like. All I need is a very thick, heavy and clear crunch (I play a Jackson soloist with EMG HZ pickups through a 100w Ibanez ToneBlaster amp)...
