STACKED HB>DRD? OFF THE HOOK!

I have had an HB for awhile, and before I bought it I had a Dyna Red that I had previously sold. I just recently bought back the Dyna Red from a friend, so I hadnt had a chance to try them together before now. Yesterday I plugged them into my Tophat Club Deluxe thru my Baker B1.The tone with both stacked together is nothing short of brilliant. It is also the first time I have tried this stack through a 6V6 amp
with a master volume, so that might have something to do with my amazement as well. I know I'm probably not telling many of you anything new, but those of you who havent tried this combination-DO IT NOW!! :D

The HB really boosts the DRD over the top doesn't it... but without being too noisy or splatty. So far, I prefer the HB before distortions because of how well it works as a boost.

yes....i liked the HB before the fuzzes and other dirt pedals.

but i am REALLY looking forward to the sweet honey OD from Mad Professor. on the waiting list with Sebastian. from the clips i have heard, the SHOD addresses the things about the HB that i would have tuned up.....just a bit "tighter" and more headroom-ey.......i think the sweet honey is gonna be a breakthru pedal for Mad Professor, and will be a new overdrive pedal that really surprises a lot of guitarists who are searching for something other than another YATS pedal 8)

I concur. The honeybee is a great stacker. I currently have it after a SWF and before a Model H but also like it before the SWF too. Maybe I need two?? He he.

What do you have on your board at the moment Slim?

my board is kinda SLIM right now, no pun intended :lol:

but i'm using the MP FRF, MP LGW, BJF SWF, MP DBD, and have some pedals incoming -- BJF PGC, Fromel Seraph & GO!.

using an old vox king wah, but i need to change the pot, i'm afraid....

on waiting list for new sweet honey OD from MP.

but in my quest for the right OD pedal, i am thinking i might be needing the SYOD. that's bad news....as there are VERY few of them 8)

i also need to give the MP SBOD another try.....
