Distortion pedals: tight/treble/gritty/fender-like?

[nrvana8775]

Hey, I'm on the hunt for a distortion pedal.
I use a bandmaster reverb for cleans, and I'm looking for something that retains a nice focused/shimmer character, but has a bit of grit/gain.

Currently looking at the EGDM standard, but it seems to have a bit of that vox mid-range honk.

Is there anything that would be akin to a fender sound, but high-gain?
Edit: using a g&l legacy w/ loller imperial.

I've been recommending this for practically everything these days, but the XTS Winford drive is incredible and will deliver those tones in spades.

Sounds good. Not sure it has enough gain, though.
I do like the general sound, A LOT. It's got the mid-range that I'm after, and the high-end is present, but not shrill.

Try a Way Huge Red Llama. It sounds fantastic as a clean boost too.

Wampler Tweed '57

more distortion than the previously mentioned Black '65 but probably not as shimmery.

The Tweed 57 is extremely touch sensitive and is a fantastic base for other pedals to stack onto. (Timmy, OCD, Rat for example)

Three "input" options for three spectrums of tone. I love mine.

MHP 72° he also has the 98.6° which is a little hotter.

Maybe a Bearfoot SYOD3?

It's very Fender-ishly voiced.
