Hey guys...

Old thread I know, sorry...

I ended up selling my. EROS pedal. I just preferred my Friedman Buxom quite a bit.
I also ended up selling my Bonsai.
I just found I was never using it.

So, I'm looking at a few more pedals and curious what you all think.

Suhr Koko Boost - boosting front end for leads - mid boost only.
Highwind DireWolf - solo boost and adding some different flavor and grind, but I also need it to boost mids.
Way Huge Green Rhino - like a better tube screamer?
The Kartakou Warmer pedal - a modified Tube Screamer?
Revv G2 - OD, mid boost and also for a different flavor into the clean channel.
Friedman Dirty Shirley pedal - I am told this also does a great boost, or into a clean channel - similar to the G2. I already love the Buxom, so I trust Friedman pedals now.

Side note, anything be try the Wampler Dacarys? I hear it's amazing.
 
I am throwing my Direwolf up on the forums for sale tonight most likely.

The Revv G2 is EXCELLENT for boosting. I did this clip a good while back and need to do a full demo

 
KSR boost excellent. Better than my Fortin 33 IMO. More tonal options. Haven’t tried REVV.

Ive had all the latest hype boosts next to my koko… a Direwolf, Deadwaeld Duality , Dirty Tree, Aris, VFE… etc… still have the Koko. The Eros is the only one I’ve kept along side it.
 
I think I had the eros sn 003 or 006 or something but I sold it. Im a huge KSR fan and I love the Ceres, PA50, Orthos, Gemini and I have an Ares due to ship any day now (also my cab is a KSR 4x12) but the Eros and the Vesta just didnt do it for me. Sold both relatively quickly. I dont need a boost with my Skeleton Key and I just use a Deadweald Duality with my Mark IV. I sold my Tamura modded tubescreamer but I am buying it back from my friend in the next week or two.

I have a Kartakou Colossus which is the second one I've bought from them. The first one was great. The second one has some weird quirks like it automatically defaults to the clean channel and when you first turn it on the LED flashes but doesnt stay solid and doesnt get any sound. So you have to turn it off then turn it back on before its actually on. The guy who builds them said this was normal behavior but I find that hard to believe. It sounds amazing but these quirks make me want to get rid of it. The only reason I dont get rid of it is cause I dont want to deal with having to explain that I have contacted them and they said it was fine. It feels like such a bullshit answer I dont want to repeat it. Also if you buy from them you will get a tracking number pretty quickly but it will take over a month to get to you(thats not Kartakou's fault). So I guess if you are looking at buying it dont count on support if it doesnt work right or if you need it quick.

Friedman Buxom boost is criminally underrated. It's one of my favorite boost to use with Splawn amps. I know most people go towards tubescreamers or 33 type pedals but I also really love Klon type pedals for crunch to high gain tones.
