Best bass distortion/overdrive pedal's?

[burk48237]

I've heard great things about the Darkglass stuff and I own their compressor and love it. The Vintage Ultra for more classic sounds and the B7K or Alph-Omega for more modern stuff. I own a VT bass I love the B-15 tone I can get our of it, but I don't consider it's overdrive tones that great, I actually like the Sans Amp better from Tech 21. I heard Tech 21 is coming out with Dug Pinnock pedal, sounds like it would be worth a demo.

I've been running the Amptweaker Tight drive with the low mod and love it for heavier sounds, expecially when I', looking for a modern SVT tone. Now keep in mind I run a Sadowsky J bass with round wounds, not exactly a vintage P bass. Here's info on the Tightdrive with some great demos including one by Dug Pinnock.

A "clean" player for many years, came a time that I needed a good overdrive. I did some research and tried a lot, finally staying with a Darkglass Microtubes B3K. But... loved these: Pigtronix Fat Drive, Behringer BOD400 (very similar to a Boss OBD3) which was very inexpensive, Aguilar Agro, Boss BB-1X (I bought this as a preamp, nice!).

Just got the Way Huge Pork and Pickle and its a very good overdrive and fuzz pedal. Has many good reviews and the price makes it a can't go wrong.
