They all sound good, but I like the ocd's harmonic overtones the best, specially when you switch to the neck pickup, or what sounds like neck at .o23 secs. I would rate BB second(what is BB))? and Zack Wylde third. The bb was a little louder but the ocd was creamier and more articulate. What guitar and Pickups are they? Nice playing too!

I like the BB, but what is it?

Interesting I thought the BB was the smoothest BUT I love the OCD on the neck. I start of with EMG 81 and then switch to a 85. played through a 2203x.

The BB is a new line of pedals that are botique and $$. Xotic preamp.

thanks

I like the Xotic BB the best. It sounded great for both rythym + lead!

I would like to see how they compare with a Keeley DS-1 + a Zvex Box of Rock.

I prefer the ZW slightly more than the others, the OCD seems a tad too gritty and the BB too smooth.

Liked the Xotic most, as it preserved the character of the Guitar and amp best. OCD seemed to have a tad too much gain and the ZW sounded thin and queeky.

I would have preferred to judge based on samples with passive pickups though, as those EMGs tend to force their trademark on anything in the signal chain, but hey if you like them ...
