In my tiny little mind, a fuzz pedal with a clean through feature, such as the Bass Big Muff, could potentially sound very awesome on guitar when turning it on effectively adds fuzz alongside the existing overdriven tone. Current drive pedals in favour are Joyo Sweet Baby and a Tubescreamer. Does anybody have experience of this or other similar pedals? It would be Tele>OD>Fuzz with clean through>Hot Rod Deluxe clean channel. Does this give two distinct tones amplified, or does it all mush together and sound crap? Again in my tiny mind, to keep control of the volume levels between fuzz on and off, a compressor might seem useful to tame that in. That's possibly nonsense though
I do like dual tone sounds, had an LS2 before but unfortunately it was missing the option to switch from A to A+B. I like the dual amp thing but don't have the space for two amps simultaneously - might the above give the same sort of effect with two drive sounds which are switchable?

Yeah ive read about the Nova, trouble is i get the impression its more OD and distortion, i like the Sweet Baby OD too much to swap it out, and more of a fuzz person than distortion. That said, the myriad of balances you describe sound like an interesting playground so I'll see if i can try one

You could conceivably do something similar internally, space permitting? Maybe ask one of the custom pedal builders on here if they could build something along those lines?
Would a multi fx with amp modelling do it? Not compact or fancy but a GT-10 would provide those options I think.
i did try the ls2 thing but as i say, it didn't let me switch between OD and OD+Fuzz so it never really took off for me.
