Title: MI Audio Blue Boy / Blues Pro
Post by: tomjackson on August 19, 2009, 01:12:32 PM

Any Love for these pedals?

Anybody compared them?

There's lots of love for the crunch box but these are not mentioned much, they seem good value though. 

BB to expensive
OCD nice, might get one
Skreddy OD as advised by Shobet 5 months wait

So need to rule these out or buy one....

I have the blue boy deluxe and what I liked about it was the tweakability of it for boosting another pedal. The Blues Pro however has more gain. Go to Proguitarshop.com and they will have some demos of these pedals

I have had 2 BBD's at various times. As Mikey5 says, they are outstanding at tweaking to boost other amps (or pedals). However, they are just horrible into a clean amp, but that's not what the pedal is for !
  Not a mid boost like a TS at all, although can be tweaked to be somewhat similar.

I have no experience of the Blues Pro though
