I've been using my OCD for almost 10 years and my Fat-Boost 3 for a while too, but I'm REALLY liking the BB preamp right now...
I've been hired by a local band to do lead guitar and the rhythm guitarist, who is a good friend of mine, gave me one of the two that he has - he's got a huge pedal collection and gave me the custom shop version with the mid boost.
My OCD is a killer overdrive pedal, but I prefer the Fatboost for cleans. The Fatboost is a great clean booster but not really an OD pedal, though I do like the EQ pots. The BB, for me, seems to take the best of both worlds and put them in one pedal. It makes leads SUPER smooth and liquid, and there's just enough compression to make it fun and even things out. It's great at warming up cleans too. It gives the whole sound a nice organic vibe - it very much feels like a preamp and not so much like a pedal (well, it's right there in the name).
The mid-boost is a nice addition from the standard pedal too, I can fatten up and round out the sound of a brighter guitar to a greater extent with that control.
Anyone else use these things on the regular?
