Geesh. First poll post. Blew it.

I only have experience with a few listed, but if I had to choose, I’d say the JHS AT, which I believe is based on the JHS Angry Charlie?

 

[KingsXJJ]

It’s DLS III for me. Followed closely by the Panama.

I have a JHS @+. That thing is a really good pedal.

Isn't the Barber Direct Drive a MIAB pedal? I have one of those and like it too.

I need to try the Barber for sure.

I don’t own any MIAB pedals. Guess I should try some.

Friedman BE-OD. Has made me sell multiple modelers…

Edit that shit! You get indefinite chances to fuck it up even more.

My "Today On The Gear Forum" quibble is some of those are not very .... uhmmm..... "Marshally,"
in my experience.

I have a Bogner Blue on my board right now that I change out with a Lovepedal Purple Plexi.
There's a few others I could get by with. The DLS is great because of the internal Superlead/Superbass
switch.

The Lovepedal PP is just more Marshally to my ears. The Bogner Blue is both smoother and fatter/thicker.
Not as Marshally.

Lots of great options out there, but that Marshall percussiveness with that upper-mid, glassy,
kerrang is tough as nails to get spot on in a pedal with diodes and transistors and op amps.

This is probably why I haven’t grabbed one yet. I have two amps that do outstanding Marshall tones so the Marshall style amp in a box pedal isn’t high on my list.

You can pry the BE-OD and @+ from my cold dead hands.

 

[KingsXJJ]

BE-OD was not my style. Too bright for me. But the AT+ has me wondering…

 

[dbagchee]

If the BE-OD was too bright for you the AT+ may be worth checking out - it has a lot of mids (where the BE-OD is more scoopy) and has a good range of high end control with the EQ and Air knobs. It's way more versatile than the BE-OD too with the boost (which can also be used just as a one knob tube screamer) and the different "wattage" voicings.

I like the Dirty Little Secret mk 3. I like the Super Bass mode.

Friedman BE-OD Deluxe.

Into a '66 Fender Deluxe.

 

[greatmutah]

The DLS is probably the one I do want to try the most. See how it does through a Vibrolux feeding a 4x12 of greenbacks.

Lovepedal Purple Plexi + Boost

 

[Desertdweller]

Friedman IR-X and it's not even close.
