TLDR - get the storm, the tsr is good but it can get a little noisy and a bit hissy at high volumes, the storm has the limiter which will get rid of alot of that unwanted noise and still deliver the good tone the same as the TSR does, the storm is basically a improved version 2 of the TSR i have been following fillipo oliveri since the early days when he was solo dallas on youtube making acdc covers in the early 00's right up until today now i call him a "brother" we are friends on facebook and chat regulary, when he first developed the TSR (the original prototype in clear plexi glass) i was following his work closely and eagerly waiting for it to become available, right from the start he promised us there would be the tower version and the pedal version which would be exactly the same as the tower sound wise just in a smaller case, i knew i wanted the TSR pedal version, however me being in australia the shipping was quite expensive and the price of the unit was kinda expensive too so i didnt buy one straight away i waited and just tried to save up as much money as i could, by the time i was ready to buy one Fil told me to hold out and wait because he was developing the Storm at the time and it was going to be the better choice and that i should wait for that because it will have the limiter which will help reduce the noise a bit which the TSR cant do that and can get a little noisey when the gain is turned up, so i did i waited and when the first series storm pedal was released Fil looked after me with a good price and made sure i got one as they sold out very fast, when it arrived it was like xmas the best gift i had ever received was the tone that pedal gave me, i played it with my SG standard and marshall JCM2000 50 watt made in england model, JCM800 1960 cab from 1985, playing on the clean channel with the volume around 5 and the gain on about 6 the tone was still clean but just starting to break up with a little crunch, then i turned on the pedal and walla amazing it had "that sound" that i was waiting for all this time it pushed the amps tone in the happy place.
Another great video so how would you say they compare to each other and sound I am listening on his cell phone so basically they sound the same.... also do you feel these could be used as a tube screamer type of pedal to push the Front end of the amp
As you know they're obviously clean boost pedals so all the dirt you're hearing is coming from the amplifier.. Not that I need to say that but if I was you I would go with the Solodallas Storm 2019.. It sounds better

I am considering buying one of these 2, so that's why I'm here at this video. The TSR sounds fuller but honestly I think there's nothing wrong with the direct amp sound in the first place... It seems to have a good balance between single notes and chords with less harshness than either of the pedals. Probably just need to crank it a bit more...
I have owned both. Both great. Listening back to a record I did in 2017, I used the Storm for the chords parts. It got a little too thick and muddy, Boosting a Bogner Ecstasy in Plexiglas mode. The TSR (which broke on me) was the best and most versatile boost I have used. It almost replaced my OG Klon. Which are 2 different beasts.
You all prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot my account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
@Jason Roberto i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
TSR definitive is the one, I still own one. I think it´s a bit about the voltage too you fit the pedals. I think on a minimum of 12 V or better 15 V you got an awesome sweety headroom much better than 9V
He's got a more than decent rig (an SG, a 70's Marshall head and a 4x12 cab) and I think you can hear those pedals add something special to the sound. So how would it be a waste of money?
@@70footer for this boost/grit thing, definitely these are stellar pedals. It depends what you're looking for, but if you want to push your amp with amazing mid range harmonics, the TSR is awesome. Even though the Storm is supposed to be more accurate (compared to the original Schaffer), the TSR adds more juicy sauce to your tone.
@@gwislomezable thats what I thought as well, I would like to use it for AC DC but also for other tones ...any difference between the TSR and the TSR4 ? if you know
@@70footer according to Solodallas there is none. I'm sure if you go look in forums you'll find every kind of answer, but i'd simply go for the best deal i could find, any version of the TSR will be great.

What settings do you like for your storm? Cheers!
Hey gearmandude I don't know what it is about you but every time I need to see a demo I check out your channel first because you are THE MAN
Which one for my Marshall Sv20 plexi? Iam using a TS 808 mini nut need a bit more girth, gain and sustain.
Is that the voice of Jack black?
No, if it’d been him, he’d have the SoR-SG.
Oh great, thanks! I have been very happy with my TSR up to now!
Now I have to sell it to get the Storm. So much AC/DCier.
Keep the TSR, it’s better than the Storm
@@riffratt I thought so to it had more clarity less mid hump way more Angus
Rig sounds great. How did you have your amp settings?
With too much gain, that’s sure…
Another great video so how would you say they compare to each other and sound I am listening on his cell phone so basically they sound the same.... also do you feel these could be used as a tube screamer type of pedal to push the Front end of the amp
I believe that is basically the point, to push the front end of an amp
@@WTWASTHAT Yes with a high gain amp
As you know they're obviously clean boost pedals so all the dirt you're hearing is coming from the amplifier.. Not that I need to say that but if I was you I would go with the Solodallas Storm 2019.. It sounds better

Which one for my Marshall dsl20c and Gibson SG standard? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
The replica sounds like a tone I could get on a modeling amp, the Storm, not so much. I think I will go with the Storm.
Your stock amp seemed pretty close ;-)

Way too much gain from the start. Acdc never used that much by the time angus used it. So it’s quite pointless.

I like the fatter sound of the Storm. Looks like I'll add it to my extensive collection of drive pedals.
Need both.
I like the storm
TSR is the one, in my opinion.
That's what I thought.. But that last riff... At those settings, the Storm took it IMHO... So.. Both!
Or the Tower 😂
Where’s the disco fuzz buddy?!!
Do I need a valve amp to make the Solodallas work? I have a modern Deluxe Reverb which has no valves and I can’t find anyone to explain this to me.
You can use this pedal in front of any amplifier or amp sim.
I wish I could find a video where someone knew how to play lead good or bad
They're okay but I don't hear anything that great here.
Decent guitar and amp and dont waste your money on any of these pedals
