Is there any fuzz/drive pedal out there that sounds like a Red Bear's preamp?

Everyone needs a stompbox.

Yeah, I had that thought as well, and have done 4-6 hour "Craigslist vacations" before :D. One problem this time is that November-December aren't exactly "Jersey vacation" months! Usually these go smoother when I can ask my wife, "want to go for a weekend road trip? We can go to ____, I just need to pick up a guitar at some point." I just need it to sound like a fun enough idea, but Jersey doesn't have much going for it this time of year haha.

Yeah, I forgot that it’s probably slushy season up north about now. We’re still oscillating between mild to warm and then some pretty cold snaps (for us this time of year) down here.

Eastampton, NJ. If you know of anything going on around there that could convince my wife this is a fun weekend road trip, I'm all ears!
