Two pedals in one- great TS style plus an excellent boost. Can't miss.

Yes it's another TS clone but it's a quite good one. In addition to the volume/gain/tone it also has a voicing switch and knob to alter the flavor. This pedal also includes an independent tweakable boost which you can put before or after the dirt. I use the boost for this drive as well as with my other drive stage (OCD v3). Both the gain and boost in this pedal stack with my OCD very well. My boost is just clean, but you can add some drive to your boost to have it behave like an overdriven amp if that's your thing. You can also add other pedals in between the boost and drive here, so the amount of options in one seemingly simple pedal are surprisingly broad.

It's a bit tall which means I would sometimes inadvertently twist a volume or gain when I'd try to engage a pedal behind it, but I have this issue with normal height pedals as well so I'm moving to a two-tiered board. So if height is an issue, look elsewhere. But if you are looking for tone, flexibility, and potentially freeing up a slot on your board currently taken up by a boost, I highly recommend this.
