Kingsley Page V2
Kingsley Mason
Kingsley Harlot V1

(EDIT: I have to mention that the Kingsley Minstrel really belongs on my list too. My three main overdrives are Mason, Minstrel and Harlot - But the Page is so legendary and amazing it deserves a place on this list. I have the page on my secondary board)

Vemuram Shanks ODS-1 (if I could only have one dirt pedal for everything, this would be it)

Hudson Broadcast AP (current favorite low gain pedal, so dynamic)

 

[Binaural]

Timmy
Klon
TS808

 

[Privateer]

Timmy (it sounds like sunshine and i love it)
The Big Muffs that say overdrive on the front in Russian, that should count
Tech 21 Character Series pedals

 

[thekeefus]

I’ve been through a thousand overdrives 642 times over so…I don’t think I have a favorite. I have current favorites.

I have an all time favorite fuzz (White Atom) but that’s as close as I can get.

Current favorite drive:
Crazy Tube Circuits Falcon

 

[Chippertheripper]

808, klon(e, if applicable), shod.
If you give me a 4th, I’d slide in the sd1.

 

[jj7642]

Fulltone OCD
Klon(e)
KOT/POT

Honorable mention:
Fairfield Barbershop.
