    There's so many I haven't played... But of the ones I have I'd say that the BB Preamp is the best all-rounder

    Boss DF-2.

    So good I have four of them.

    Pork Loin for OD, Fat Sandwich for distortion. Or a Rat for both.

    I do :)

    I'm not sure it is worth upgrading for given you're incorporating your B7K into a Helix rig IIRC.  The extra EQ points are literally just that, extra EQ points, they're not able to really change the texture of the sound in the way something like the character control on a VT Bass DI does.  You could surely emulate these with a parametric EQ in the Helix.  Personally I only use 250hz sometimes vs the 1khz on the B7K... I honestly think they did a great job first time round picking the EQ points on the non ultra pedal.

    I tried one and thought it was over-rated, but maybe it's just me. It's probably just another slightly modded Tube Screamer anyway…
