Can anyone shed any light on these pedals

I have the fuzz factory and love it. Is the BoR worth a go?

I have the Distortron and love it. very versatile, very natural sounding!

Is it not just something daft like six lpb-1s in one box?

More from a very nice, always-on base tone to a very almost spanky, compressed drive with a good amount of sag in the low end.

When I saw MBV live his main drive tone sounded very much like my Distortron. It's based on a Marshall JTM 45 I think

In fact (self pimp) it's the main sound on this track: http://soundcloud.com/mutes-1/mutes-m-p-d-g

I think three sho's. Not sure if this is correct or how in fact I know this.

I have a Made By Mike clone (slightly tweaked, with the boost before the distortion) and it's great. One of the most 'amp-y' OD-dist pedals I've played without any tubular valves within.

It was both my bass 'clean' and dirty tone in CAUTIONHORSES, and is my 'always-on' kinda clean sound in Casa Bonita. Lovely Marshally stuff.
