I just fell in love with the 3BOD into the MG. The pair together is now my favorite overdrive sound I've come across. This morning at church I ran the following chain:
Gretsch Duo Jet > TC Electronic Dual Parametric EQ > 1974 Dyna Comp > Nobels ODR-1 > 3BOD > MG > Deluxe Memory Man > 1965 Fender Princeton
This was just about perfect as far as I am concerned. The old blackface Princeton is extremely clean, so I use the Dyna, ODR-1, and 3BOD to boost and shape my base tone. I kept the 3BOD with tone all the way up and the drive set to the edge of breakup only when really laying into my guitar. It is really dynamic this way. Once I kick in the MG, it was game over. I really have never been happier with my tone. I also have my BBOD and LGW available for different overdrive sounds, and I couldn't be more pleased.
