I currently have a MXR Wylde Overdrive and was thinking of getting a TS-9 clone, via BBE Green Screamer but don't want to have 2 overdrives that sound pretty much the same. Anyone have experience with these two overdrives and could make a recomendation?

I'm also looking at the BBE Sonic Stomp and some EQ pedal would be nice too. Suggestions on the Sonic Stomp and a good EQ pedal?

Thanks,
Jeremy

The MXR pedal is going to have tons of gain compared to a Tube Screamer clone. A Tube Screamer is more of a boost than it is an overdrive. The two pedals won't be the same.

If you are used to the Wylde pedal and you try a TS9, your reaction might be "is that all it does?"

Try a Digitech Bad Monkey...they sound a lot like a TS9 but they have a bit more gain than a TS9. Monkey's cost $39.95 everywhere. I love mine.
