Help me pick a new drive / preamp.

The Sushibox stuff has already been mentioned. On The higher end, the Free The Tone Bass Blaster is fantastic. EQ and OD without any loss of bass. Great pedal, highly recommended.

I would like to add, if you're experiencing low end loss with the Nobels check that you don't have one of the bass cut models with the internal switch engaged. I use the Nobels on a down tuned 5 string and it has no issues with the below 30hz I can put out.

Good call, I love my Nobels as well, no bass loss for me either!

I believe OP is using a Noble pre-amp, not a Nobels drive pedal. But I agree it's a great circuit for bass; the Belle I was bigging up on the last page is modelled off the Nobels ODR-1

DarkGlass Vintage Deluxe Vl works for me. I had the V2 at one time.
