So I'm looking to complete (for now) my effects chain by adding a second drive. What I'm looking for is a more "always on", light to medium drive with a vintage-y, tube-y sound. From what I've found I'm leaning towards the MP Blueberry or SFT, but, of course, I am open to other suggestions!

As far as I understand the SFT is a "give-me-a-tiny-Ampeg" kinda pedal.
Might be a good thing to keep in mind when look |

The SFT does have a pleasantly bright and grindy sound to it that can be left "always on", even when there's not much breakup dialed in. You can think of it as a tone enhancer.
