GK Diesel Dawg or Ashdown LoMenzo Hyperdrive?

I can't decide between the two. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I can't vouch for the LoMenzo HyperDrive.

I have a Diesel Dawg. It's a personal choice, but it's my favourite bass distortion pedal for bass bar none. On my pedalboard I've got the Diesel Dawg, the Digitech Bass Driver, the Boss ODB-3, an ehx Bass Big Muff, and a SansAmp BDDI. They all do different things, but if I had to choose just the one, the DD would win, no contest.

Your results will vary greatly depending on what you plug into. For reference I use it with a GK Fusion 550; it sounds great with the Fusion, but it really shined with my Ashdown EBM and my Traynor YBA-200.

Not sure why you've restricted yourself to those particular 2? I've never played through a Diesel Dawg but heard one live and it sounded incredible. I bought a LoMenzo recently and was very disappointed, so if you go for one of those I recommend you try before you buy or find a used one!
