If you want a warm tone then a TUBE amp is where to go. I dont really know about overdrive pedals but im happy with my Boss SD-1.

well, "warm tone" usually means tubes.... you could maybe afford a tube pedal for $120(a really nice one used)... then just use the head...

or.... pay a friend with a small brain and big balls to steal a good amp for you. for $120 i'm sure you could probably find somebody willing to do it..

Tim from Dungeon added warmth on the A Rise To Power album by placing a power cable over the 1/4 cable while recording to PC.
