Edit: I should probably add something useful, but since I don't play bass I don't think my opinion on this issue carries any weight. I do love Catalinbread, so I'd vote for the SFT. It is based on a Ampeg, and from what I've heard bass + Ampeg = . The bass player in my old band used to run '72 Tele bass -> Sansamp -> SVT Classic -> 6x10 Ampeg, and it sound balls awesome.
This is one of the main reasons why the SFT was on my original list, I used to be an Ampeg man but I found that tube style and warmer pre amps were my bag. However the SFT has a lot to offer and it is right at very sweet price point. It sounds so dreamy with the gain cranked to max settings. Every distortion mentioned thus far has been completely awesome so far The Rusty Box, HBE Hematoma, and the SFT are in my top 3 right now. The only thing I don't like about the rusty box is that it has wonky power requirements. I am holding fast until the end of october and I am determined to do so. The input has been awesome and I love you guys. its been really helpful in pointing me in the right directions.
And on another note, Drop D does sound bad ass. Matter of fact playing Drop D on the ECT = brutal.
Wonky power requirements=stop being a baby and just use the adapter that they supply to you and, if breaks, they will replace for free (found out the hard way).
I caved and got the PP2+ cable for it. Adapter is safe in box. Getting the cable is worth it for this beast. They should make a voltage tripler, so I could do 36 volts..
