What do you want to know?
Aare you trying to decide on one to purchase?
Is it for rhythm or solos or both?
LOTS OF QUESTIONS!

It's for palm muting with definition. I used to have a Barber Trifecta that I used on the Suppa Bender setting, but I sold it a while back.

beware this path you are on…it is long, twisty and expensive…but hot damn I have some some lust after all 3…There's a cool post over on DAM forums this weekend with someone describing what they are looking for in a band setting. Fairly insightful responses.

Next question - why of the bender variety?
Me or any of the builders here could just build all 3 in one box and you can switch between them :lol:

Well muffs don't really work for palm muting.

Most fuzzes don't have enough definition, and most ODs aren't dirty enough.

Sure, here you go:

Though Wildebelor has a point, you might consider having someone do a custom build for you...

I have to say, and I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way, but I have two 'muff' based pedals that combat that exact issue.
The Host Moon and the Fuzz Age both do palm muting exceedingly well - I use them in my own rig and recordings etc
