Re: What’re y’all digging on for dirt pedals these days?

Still deep in the honeymoon phase with my Ceriatone Yeti. The amp gain is all I need with that.
Into a clean tube amp - Bogner Ecstacy Blue Mini. I especially like this with my Bassman. It turns it into a fire breather.
For pushing a tube amp on the edge of break up over the top - Danelectro Pride of Texas or EHX Soul Food depending on the amp I'm using and the level of gain I want. The POT is really nice. Sort of a smoother OD-9/TS-9 with more gain and better tone controls. I have 1 amp I really like with my old SD-1 with but the POT or SF are my most used OD pedals.
Fuzz - meh. I have a Blackout Effectors Musket (V2) and a EHX Muff (Rams Head, modern small version). I like the Musket better but I really never use either. I want to like them but I just don't. I know it's an operator error issue. I think both pedals shine with a lot of volume and my living situation doesn't make that easy so they never get used. My total use time on the Muff has got to be than 5 minutes. Plug it in, turn it on, hate it immediately and rip it off the board. Rinse and repeat a year later.
