Does anybody have information on clipping diodes in tubescreamers or other overdrives?
Tested and found a great combibation?
I have tested assymetrical 1N4148 and like it.

Tech Specs of the diodes?
General opinions on diode types?

I�m after different combinations of diodes in the clipping stage, their effect/tone/sound etc
I have tried some combinations that I like, but there must be many combinations and diodes that I don�t know.

Thanks Laurie, I have googled a bit and there are many "bests" for sure, it ends with personal taste I guess.
I like symmetrical and assymetrical LEDs, for the moment
