yesterday I've got something like your tone when I plugged the distortion after ther reverb. I haven't experienced with strat - my guitar has a glued in neck.
So coming to the pint.i guess boss distortion (am I right?) has "some kind of" built in compressor befor the distortion effect (the one point of the soind in my oppinion is attack) that gives effect to the reverb i used. But I believe that effect could be reached using hi volume (i meen loudness - maybe 2/3 - 1/2 of the main sound) and quickly fading reverb befor the distortion with ~35 deg. angle. But you should also experiment with distortion's "gain".
It is a matter of attitude ot your sound) the majority of people would search for "there" effect - that would halp them to reach the sound they want. But I'd rather have one effect with lots of buttons and controlls than have 3 different distortions from 3 manufacturers or have a digital processor which simulates the sound of the 3 dist. effects...
it's just occur to me that the reverb could add some "additional" frequencies that are missing in the main sound. I believe there presence explains the "roaring" sound. Those additional frequencies could appear in the signal due to the construction of the effect (overdrive).
