Question TS-10 vs. Bad Monkey vs. TS-5

OK... just to get this out of the way, I already have my OD sounds well placed with an Analogman/Keeley duo and I'm waiting for a Timmy...

But I run an stereo rig and I want to be able to run one of the amps clean and the other one dirty while still having my Analogman/Keeley on front (cause I stack them a lot)... So basicly I'm looking for a cheap ($40?) stock tube screamer kind of pedal to put in front of just one of the amps while the other one is clean.

So how do these 3 pedals compare?
EDIT: any others I should check out?

The TJ5 is darker than the others. The TS10 is brighter.

Between those three I'd get the Bad Monkey without a second thought.

+1 on the Bad Monkey.It does a great job,especially for the money.I use mine as a spare when I'm inbetween OD's.
Hell,the name alone made me get one : )

TS 10 is the way to tone.

TS10. I've had TS 5, 10, and 9 all sound 98% the same to me. Only thing, the crappy switching thing on the tank series, otehr than that, killer pedal.

The monkey is clearly the best choice because of its superior EQ and solid build quality. I have a feeling that when you a/b it with your keely and analogman one of them will be on the emporium very shortly.:AOK
