I'm also pulling out of the tour but can't wait to hear everyone's take on the two.

OK so after spending some time with these guys over the past couple days I've come to a decision...

The 3-knob BEEST is pretty awesome and sounds pretty much like the 4-knobber with the pregain up pretty high but not quite like it maxed. I didn't spend too much time comparing the two though. The BEEST 4knob is a really cool pedal. With the pregain down it basically behaves like a traditional HBOD and up it's essentially the 3-knob BEEST. The pregain seems to allow for better tuning of the nature control with the added brightness and tightness. But basically after going back and forth with this and the Model 4-H I just couldn't get over how unique the 4H sounds. It's just a killer distortion pedal that's more dynamic than anything I've ever tried and the more I play with my guitar's volume AND TONE knobs the more I get the pedal. So it looks like the 4H will be sticking around afterall. I still don't use the treble or volume above about 9:30 or the gain about 12'oclock but it sounds too killer to let it go (and the EQ ability with tone and treble knobs is awesome).

:mrgreen:

So who gets the 4-Knob Beest now?
