By a quick search for my introduction post, it looks like: 15 pre BC (is that B.BC?), 8ish years and 9 post, 12 years, which means that, despite the GASeous nature of BC, I've been more circumspect since joining. Hmm, something's wrong.
OK, I think this is all of them and that they're in order. There's about a 15 year gap between the first 2 and the third one (I was lured back to dark, 6 string side for a good while). The ones that I still own are in bold, although the Jake is for sale (shameless plug ) and I’m hoping to get a JMJ Mustang with the proceeds from that.

Exactly the same for me (except they're passive Maruszczyks). The SBP circuit just seems to sprinkle sonic fairy dust on the tone (which wasn't bad to start with) and is not obvious or intrusive as they still sound fundamentally the same, just more so.
Also use a VTDI, but only for driven tones and in addition to the SBP.
My amp (Phil Jones Flightcase) is set almost flat, just a little cut on the bass control. All my pedals are in front of the amp.
There are 7 B stock, new Metro Expresses on Thomann (if looking, don’t forget to add VAT). Add that to the eBay ones and that’s a lot of sub-standard Sadowskys available in the wild. If I were Roger, I’d be pretty p155ed off by that.
