I had a Darkglass M900 amp for a while, and preferred the b3k setting. It took a bit more work to get it to sit right in the live band mix, but I preferred it as a tone. Been mulling it over and wondering if maybe the b7k ultra is a bit overkill for me. I use a EBS TD650 as a live amp, so if I’m thinking of using a b7k as more of a always on, low gain bit of grit, I might be better off just picking up a used b3k. I was attracted to the Ultra because of the ability to switch the drive in and out without bypassing the pedal completely. Most of my gigs for the rest of this year are really just pub and club gigs, so I wouldn’t really be using it as a DI, although a DI pedal is always handy to have on hand in case of amp failure. I do have a EBS Billy Sheehan drive pedal, so I could realistically pair that with a b3k and have one set low gain, always on, and one set full banzai to kick in when needed, which admittedly wouldn’t be too often. Decisions decisions!
