For more natural and rough tube-sounding overdrive Mellowtone Singing Tree's are amazing.

What kind of vox do you have? Guitars?
...and what kind of overdrive? Low/med/high gain? Transparent/midhumpy?
There are some that call me...morningstaru?

The Devi Ever KP and Mellowtone Singing Tree work well whether you put your fuzz before or after the overdrive, I highly recommend them.

Fulltone OCD. To date it's the longest lasting pedal on my board...it just won't leave.

Yo PP, are there any significant differences between the ST and KP? I own and love the Singing Tree, but I've never had the opportunity to play a KP.

I really like my Catalinbread Silverkiss for a more transparent overdrive. It's boosts fuzzes very very well.
