Yowsers! that's a GREAT pedal. Anyone want to buy a kidney? It's had a fair bit of abuse, but still works. :)

Thanks for the responses, guys.

That Darkglass sounds fantastic. And quality costs!

I do like the ODB-3, and have had one and liked the grit it added to my bass, but I couldn't get the more overdriven sounds I like with it.

Any thoughts on the EBS Multidrive or the MXR M80?

Not tried either of those.. But there is a programmable sansamp for sale at the moment on here. If you don't mind the mid scoop its very useable for tone shaping, adding tubey warmth, and is more than capable of overdriven tones too! The blend knob is probably what made me choose it over the VT bass which doesn't have one. Being able to save a few settings is incredibly useful too!

Have you thought about the mxr m80. Its a wicked unit, great with both passive and active bass, I use one all the time and I use an active bass.

Worth all the money spent on it, its a really flexible little unit, its got a d.i out as well as your normal out and it has a parallel out too!

Saying that though, that darkglass unit sounded yummy!
