I love mine too. Im the exact opposite of time spent with it. Thought most were over hyping it and that turned me off. Sound bytes were decent enuff but i can be indifferent at the wrong times. So after many years i got one. Love it. Price is stellar too. Just went with good ole yellar.Boss SD1 going on over 30 years now.
I've tried fancier/more expensive ODs but always came back to my old SD1 so I eventually gave up on buying other OD pedals.
The BE-OD loves Marshall's and has much gain when needed....View attachment 144157
While I haven’t tried the buxom boost, the BE-OD bumped the SD-1W off my board and sold on reverb.I use a Buxom boost and I really like it. If the BE-OD is anywhere as good as the Buxom I may need to try it.
JVM crunch channel red mode boosted, mine with a fulltone, is sweet.I use an OD with higher level but zero gain on some channels, some amps. Adds some extra to the Jubilee, is essential with the 800 4010, and I sometimes goose ch 2 mode B on the 6101 and red mode ch 2 on the JVM410. The TSL on Ch 2 likes it too.
I find ODs with simply a tone control to be lacking some low end IMO. I have an old Bad Monkey I really like for the 2 band EQ and recently picked up an MXR super Badass Distortion used the same way. It has 3 band EQ. It works for me.
I found the shaky Jimi to be so anemic compared to my deja vibe. It is cheap tho. Glad it works for some people.Timmy, Archer Klone, POB Zentastik(Dumble), TDrive, Superlead Plexidrive, with a couple delays, EHX Worm, and a Shaky JimiVibe/chorus in the loop
This is a little like asking which desert tastes the best. We all hear different things in our mind's eye of what is the "best" tone. I recently built the StewMac "2Kings" pedal (based on the famed Analogman) and I love it. Others I use are The Dude, OCD, and the Bogner La Grange. All three impart unique sounds to cover a wide variety of styles. The 2Kings pedal can really thicken the tone while retaining not articulation clarity - rather magical really.Thought about this when reading the Tubescreamer thread...I love dirt boxes in front of all—but especially Marshall amps. Bought and sold dozens and dozens of them and I think still have at least a dozen lying around. Love to hear experiences of others...here is what I have at the moment
Maxon OD820—honeymoon period but I love this guy. Like the TS9 but more treble, more headroom...just BIGGER. Also physically larger so keep in mind
Timmy—love this, got replaced by the new Maxon OD820 but will be back. The original ‘transparent’ od
TS9–benchmark mid hump od best run low in front of an already overdriven amp
Secret Preamp—my ‘always on’ pedal at the end of the board. Not really an od, more of a compressor? I dunno—try one out, you’ll thank me.
SoloDallas Storm—like the SP, more of a compressor/boost than an OD but where the SP is subtle the Storm is like a cock punch. Tons of boost on tap and something else that changes your tone more drastically than the SP.
Archer Ikon—best ‘Klone’/Klon Cline I’ve tried. Pretty unique—not a ton of boost but I really liked it run like a TS—low gain, tone up. Great in front of my SC20 when it’s breathing a bit
Naga Viper treble booster—Rangemaster circuit apparently? Sounds ‘Sabbath-y’ to me in front of my Marshalls. I like a lot of high end to my tone and this is lacking a bit in that Dept
Tone Job EQ/booster—replaced the Detox as my ‘clean channel’ pedal. Set low it works just like your guitar volume the way it cleans up your tone. But better and actually tweakable
OCD—if I were going to a gig not knowing what I was going to have as a backline I’d bring the OCD. At home in front of anything really—played a hard rock gig once with a 100w Hiwatt in a small room and only an OCD and a wah
Yup, that’s why I have over 2 dozen and I keep wanting more, like the Buxom @solarburn was mentioning.This is a little like asking which desert tastes the best.

Joyo Tauren. Awesome inexpensiveThought about this when reading the Tubescreamer thread...I love dirt boxes in front of all—but especially Marshall amps.
