There are lots of nice boutiquepedals, it depends what tones you're after. I'm using and old Ibanez TS9 (1981) for blues, an Emma Reezafratzitz for anything from blues to hardrock, and a Suhr Riot on the clean channel of my amps to get serious distortion/solotones on low volumes.
If you want those kind of blues tones, there a lot of good pedals like the Emma Stinkbug, Barber Direct Drive, Okko Diablo +, Brunetti Taxidrive, Providence Silky Drive, Maxon VOP9, Rockett Blue Note overdrive, Xotic AC and BB, Mi Audio Blues Pro, Vahlbruch Jewel Drive, Jetter Jet Drive, Port City Sahana Boost, etc.
