The preamp is really special - it essentially does what I hoped the Hudson Broadcast might give me but didn't. Choosing colours wasn't easy either - I could've happily had 4 different ones
As for the fuzz, I've never used fuzzes in a band context but I can see this one actually working nicely.
I had the Benson Fuzz but sold it on, becuase I wanted something nastier and not so low gain.
I subsequently got a Broadcast, but it doesn't sound as good as the Benson in the low gain range. I know the Benson preamp is the closer pedal in design, but there's still overlap between the Broadcast and Benson Fuzz.
The Benson is really dynamic, kind of like a germanium overdrive rather than a fuzz. Sounds great boosted also.
Although it wasn't what I was looking for I probably should have kept it, as it's such a nice pedal, I prefer it to the broadcast to be honest.
What Union T&T pedal(s) did you try?
Not sure on the Broadcast, some good sounds but not as instantly likeable as the Broadcast was and a bit harder to dial in.
I think I'll see the mk2!

I have three of these Benson Preamp pedals, absolute tone monsters!
