Also a MP Sweet Honey OD deluxe is very good but the Timmy has that 10% more.

The One Control version is easily available.
My favourites of my current ones would be:
Vemuram Jan Ray
Vemuram Shanks ODS-1
1981 Drv
Mesa V Twin V2 (some really great low gain sounds in it)
Demon Pedals Shifuku Kondo(D Style amp-in-a-box)
JRAD Archer (prefer the silver for Boost, gold for gainer stuff)
Duellist V2
I love threads like this, my wish list grows exponentially after reading them.
Someone lent me an MXR Timmy and I tried both ... the MXR isn't any better in MHO
The Zoom Power Drive has a good reputation but felt a bit flat to me. I should probably sell mine claiming it's really upsetting to be moving it on but blah blah.

Lowering my expectations has succeeded beyond my wildest dreams.
*An Official Foo-Approved guitarist since Sept 2023.
The Peacekeeper and the Tim were the best of the gazillion low-gainers I had before that.
Others I tried and really like:
Electronic Audio Experiments - Halberd
Barber - Ltd.
Okko - Twin Sonic (the old one, even though Mk2 is great as well)
SS/BS - Mini (one of the best pedals ever made, I use it mainly with a little more gain)
Analogman - King of tone
Prince of Tone (clean, clear, fabulous).
Marshall BB reissue (just what you’d expect!).
Browne Carbon (on some days, depending on my hormones or something, this is the best of the lot - really crisp).
I ought to try the Duck of Tone (esp. as I have great affection for MXR pedals), but I can’t convince myself there’s any point!
I’ve fallen in to the trap of A/Bing it and thinking ‘oh it doesn’t have enough bottom’ or ‘that other one has a more pleasing gentle mid bump’ or some such but then 10 mins later I realise I’ve just been playing away with the Lightspeed and really enjoying it. Great pedal.
it’s definitely a very similar kind of thing (sound wise) to the Timmy but it is like the Lightspeed in that it just sounds right at all kinds of settings.
You know that thing where a drive pedal can sound a bit like a drive and a clean sound at once? This is the most opposite of that - which I know is an odd description but it’s just how it seems.
