Re: Digitech Bad Monkey Overdrive
The Bad Monkey, as others have said, is a good little TS clone. The two-band EQ really helps shape tone, where a true three-knob TS circuit forces you to learn to like the mid bump, with a Bad Monkey you have a half-decent chance to EQ it out.
I have the evolution of this pedal, the Hardwire CM-2:
Base sound is similar to the Bad Monkey, but it has a bit more of both clean volume and dirt on tap. However, it's just an effect pedal, no direct out or cab sim, so if that's what interests you, Bad Monkey all day.
