The this drive pedal makes such a lovely noise with my humbucking guitar thread

Assuming first a great clean tone, most reviews you hear are using a horrible dead and dull or slightly crunchy tone - if that's you're starting point then you have more options. So basically I'm not EQing the amp to benefit the drive. Which makes most of my Wamplers a bit redundant. A lot of drives sound great (really great fun) at home but crap live, like the Pinnacle unless you're doing some amp EQ which compromises the clean.

I'd agree with this. The only pedal I have which sounds fantastic with H/Bs without compromising my Princeton Reverb clean tone is actually my cheapest, my Joyo Ultimate Drive. It's full, rich and fat at stage volume, with all my other pedals I have to tweak the amp EQ to find the sweet spot of the pedal.
