Digitech Bad Monkey vs Hardwire CM-2

[dmmi]

Anyone have any thoughts on these 2 Digitech pedals......

The Hardwire line is supposed to be the crem de la crem of Digitech....so would the CM-2 be better than the Monkey?

I can't speak for the Hardwire, but the Bad Monkey is one of the best deals out there for a TS-style boost. The separate bass and treble controls on it are pure win.

I've read up on the Monkey....and am leaning towards it.

Just wondering if TS7 is to TS808 as Bad Monkey is to Hardwire CM-2?

Monkey sounds nasty imo - sounds like a bitcrusher at extreme levels to me. Go for the hardwire out of those two I'd say.

The only digitech pedals worth anything are the whammys. For the price, I would just get an actual TS9 or SD1

wow....I was reading a lot of good things on the Monkey....shit I don't know what to get.

I don't have availability of TS7....so I need an alternative. I play through a Valve King head and Supreme XL cab.

Help!!!!!! I've already spent WAY too much money, so I don't want to be wasting more.

Thx!
