Looking to get (or try) a transistor based OD and these two have piqued my interest. Curious to see if anyone here have tried either or both of these, I would love to get your feedback. Which do you prefer?

I love the Halberd personally although I haven’t tried the other. I’d say in the clanky setting you’re definitely loosing low end but depth helps bring it back in a little. The other settings preserve or add plenty of low end nicely, ranges from subtle OD to thick and chewy.
The Fifth Gear looks interesting.
