It took two previous polls ( here and here) for me to really narrow down the field to worthy competition, but I think I've got a pretty good list to choose from at this point. Vote for any and all pedals that you consider excellent choices. Don't worry if you aren't familiar with all of them... this isn't to determine "the best" so much as it is to determine TB favorites.
Thanks for participating!  |

I must admit that the main tonal characteristics is jaw dropping effect when i turn it on  .
b3k in studio is amazing, live is perfect. Best overdrive i have ever heard.
I have a short clip i recorded: RBasic ash jazz bass with Dimarzio ultrajazz pu's - B3k - Markbass F500 - Di Out - directly into my soundcard. No eq. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/24976266/b3k.mp3
Hope you'll like it  . | I'm no Darkglass endorser or whatever, i just like this pedal very much. My band members and my sound engineer fell in love with it also  . |

Blend - 12
Level - 13 (or 1 in US clock :-P)
Drive - 13 (or 1)
Boost - ON
Grunt - Raw
It much depends on bass you use and style of playing... |

| | | wow, I was expected to end up with a 'short list' of great overdrive pedals, but it looks like the darkglass really just runs away with it! Too bad it's so damn expensive. If a wad of cash ever randomly falls into my hands, though, I know what to spend it on  |

|  | I promised myself I would stop buying pedals | | Join Date: Feb 2000 Location: Perth, Australia | | | I voted B3K because it's the only one I've played (arrived today), but I would also vote for the VT Bass.
I think the VT is more versatile but the B3K does it's thing better, is a lot less noisy at high gain settings and is more responsive to dynamics and input tones.
