Transparent Distortion?

The most clarity I have ever heard in a dirt pedal is the Damnation Audio MBD-1. It ranges from OD-Dist.

Yup, that's why I got mine. Super clear and can go from "barely there" to "facemelt" in a simple knob turn.

Another option worth looking at is the Earthquaker Devices Westwood. It gets dirty but is still pretty transparent and tame even when you dime it.
