"I tried to get something blisteringly high gain and tried the Mesa ThrottleBox and the Friedman BE-OD"
I was hoping the Mesa throttlebox was decent. Disappointed to hear that but I'm not surprised. I have an OCD and like it for somethings, I will check out the angry Charlie and pinnacle deluxe...
"Im getting one of the tc ampworx pedals from sweetwater today to try."
I look forward to hearing the report on it. I'll check it out. Good to hear the be pedal doesn't sound bad
