I was tossing up between this and the Looking Glass and ended up buying the LG after testing it in Anderson's.
Didn't try the Hudson but good to hear it is a fine pedal.
I am a big fuzzface fan so this pedal works as it’s an overdrive with a nod to that sound.
I foolishly sold mine... mind you, yours looks awesome
Honestly, it’s a breath of fresh air to me. It’s not mid humpy, it’s essentially the sound of Jimmy Page and his Tele.
Keep an eye out for a 999 - now that's the best OD pedal ever.
Two footswitch version - high/low on a footswitch, four knobs (separate volumes for high/low modes
Charge pump versions - internal charge pump ups the voltage to 24v for more headroom + low end, still runs off standard 9v
I prefer having one without the charge pump as I can give it anything from 9-24v from my DC5. Some people have custom versions with pumps on a switch which is cool. I reckon high gain mode is most fin at 9-18v. There were versions with posh transistors and things but I think those three are the main variants you see in the wild these days.
I haven't seen a demo that quite does justice to how useful it is as a tone enhancer (as boring as that sounds) or how mental the fuzz can get. Cleans up like a fuzz face even after Boss buffers. Put it after digital effects to warm them up and stuff. A dirt for all seasons and purposes.

Dist+ and 250 both have opamp and clipping diodes.
Broadcast has a transformer(!) and a germanium transistor

No change on my initial thoughts. It’s a stunning pedal. I use it with my Fender amp on clean at home volumes and it gives me that early break up tone, even at low volumes.
Here is some shit playing to prove it.
