How Close Can They Really Get? — DOD Badder Monkey vs Boss SD-1 | Grudge Match

Can a classic Boss overdrive and the DOD Badder Monkey actually land in the same tonal space? In this Grudge Match, I’m exploring the Boss SD-1 Super OverDrive and the DOD Badder Monkey overdrive through the exact same rig to hear how much overlap is possible when gain staging and EQ choices are explored. Same guitar. Same amp. Same speaker. Same performance. You’ll hear: Real-time A/B overdrive comparisons How gain staging and EQ affect perceived tone A full band mix Guitar-only passes Why these two pedals can sound surprisingly close — yet still feel different This isn’t about declaring a winner. It’s about understanding overdrive voicing, EQ interaction, and how much tone lives in the settings — not just the pedal. ⏱️ CHAPTERS (ACCURATE STRUCTURE) 00:00 Intro 00:16 Welcome & What Is a Grudge Match 01:11 What’s on the Bench 01:20 Tail of the Tape — Badder Monkey & SD-1 03:18 Settings & Gain Staging 05:15 Rig Rundown 06:05 SOUND TEST: Real-Time (SD-1 → Badder Monkey) 06:40 Thoughts on the Real-Time Test 08:34 SOUND TEST: Full Mix 09:28 SOUND TEST: Guitars Only 10:23 Thoughts on the Full & Guitars Only Mix 14:54 Final Thoughts
