Analogman Beano Boost w/ Orange and Vox amps. Keeley BD-2 w/ Fenders (I loved it into my friend's Twin Reverb).

I'd really like to try the Hot Cake sometime since my AC15 is non-MV. I'm not very into pedals but it seems very useful.

Hmmm, I have never tried a keeley BD-2. I have the Keeley TS9 though and it sounds pretty good. However I dont use it much over the KOT

ToneMan Dallas-Arbiter-Range-Master clone. I don't know if it's the best, but it's a pretty darn good little OD pedal.

Hey Billy, don't you find the Drivemaster a bit mushy with your AD?

I used mine for ages as a sort of third gain stage on top of the AD's second channel and a Boss SD-1.

Never could get it to sound good on its own.

My vote goes to the G2D Custom OD. I can get my Direct Drive (used to be my desert island pedal) sounds out of it (more open sounding compared to the DD) plus the Blues channel for low gain sounds.

Nice, I got the freakshow brown rabbit (rat clone) I love it...it has ln308 chip in it too

Is the cream tone basically a ts9 type overdrive?
