Hahaha that same thought popped up in my head. As for the pedal, sorry but I've never tried it but most of the EHX pedals are very good. You should try it out though, before making any decisions.

They don't got it instore, I got no way of finding out for this one, it's special order only.

Yeah, Zep specifically, but this plus a Blackstar HT-5, you can nail any tube drive I figure.

The Ibanez tubescreamers have an AWESOME sound, it's really something. The bonus to the Blackstar HT-5 (and the related pedals, the HT-Boost, HT-Dual, and HT-Dist) is that they give you different flavors to your sound, so you can get a wider range of sound. For that specific sound you get out of an Ibanez tubescreamer, it's really something, though. It's just not the Zep sound I'm looking for, and others.
