Mojopedals Klone as an alternative to the real thing.

I have 2 Analogman TS9 Silvers. They are awesome and I use them stacked with each other, before/after other pedals, tube amp overdrive, or just alone. Nothing cuts better IMO.

Full Drive 2. It sounds great in all modes, especially loud and at 18V. I use a pre-mosfet in comp cut mode, at 18V, with low gain. It sounds excellent into an overdriven amp IMO.

Is there a big difference in sound compared to eachother ? and does the FD2 Cut in the mix better than a ts type pedal or does it just sound good when you play at home or just rythm. im looking sometihng for my soloes or riffs that need to stand out

FD2 is a TS type pedal (at least in some settings). I personally like TS type pedals more for Solo/Lead work because they are compressed and midrangy which can make chords a little to thick sometimes. As anything, they sound best loud, but can work at home too. I have a number of awesome lead pedals (check my sig) and the TS always cuts better than anything and has pretty good sustain for an overdrive, though fuzz wins in that department.

Crowther Hotcake or Cmatmods Brownie. Both are great for soaring leads and cut through extremely well.
