Always loved the look of those sparkly SHOs, never owned one… sound similar to a Bad Bob, I reckon?

How about the Durham Sexdrive?

I personally love the London.
Keen in Tim and also the Maxon looks cool.
Great pedals for sure...

Never had a Bad Bob but their tonal descriptions sound very similar (if not identical). I already had a SHO for years and it has always been my 1st in the chain, always on booster. I also like that it has 2 outputs for spliting the signal.

Here's an Analog Man article compairing the BB to other boosters.

Sorry to hear about your friend! He was obviously a connoisseur

I had a Gainster just like that! Amazing drive pedal, shouldn't have sold it

Sorry about your loss! I really dig his collection.

Have fun exploring the sounds from another time.

Three more items have been bequeathed to me. I have heard of them from the past but have never used them before.

They found another pedal in a drawer. Unfortunately, the Drive pot is broken.
