Wow,
Have been patiently looking for a versatile single pedal for crunch in front of my super clean Musicman HD130 4*10 and boy did I find it-

Light OD on 1 and heavy crunch on ch2 easily goes from light blues to cliffs of dover with 1 step- Very responsive, built like a tank and some have complained about a noise with high gain, but so far, no problems.
An important requirement was gain and master on each channel to balance against each other and the bypass and it works perfectly-
I was a little concerned that there's a single EQ setting, but channel timbres are well balanced, so that's not an issue-
Messed with the ISF- Definitely moves from scooped to thick in a musical way- Imagine this will get tweaked a lot in the studio-
Great thread follows and big thanks to Gtrjunior for pointing me this direction!
Trying it live later in the week and will report back.
And in retrospect it all makes sense- The MM is a hybrid so it makes sense that another 12ax7 in front would be a good fit- hard to imagine why they stoped making these!
