Opinions on a Fulltone Bass Drive pedal

[davidjbass]

I am thinking about buying a used Fulltone Bass Drive pedal.
Any opinions on how it sounds? Can it handle a low B string?

it can "handle" a low B but there is significant low-end rolloff on the bass drive, as well as a strong mids emphasis. I had another opportunity to a/b a BD Mosfet with the HBE Hematoma and found the Hema MUCH friendlier to the low end than the bassdrive, as tubescreamer circuits go - then again, it might also be too dark sounding for ya

HBE Hematoma huh! MMM I like dark. Thanks I'll check it out.
