Thanks!

I like the DS the best.....it has this chewy sag that you don't get from the stiffer big brothers.
Get the Shirley in addition to your BE

Yeah I know they are different and don't expect them to be able to sound alike, what I was wondering is just in terms of pure gain ... for example, if you plug in a humbucker equipped guitar into high input and crank the gain on DS to full ... where does that come to (approximately) on the BE? (all switches off) Around 5 on the gain dial? 6? 7? ... etc.

Maybe 7-ish but it is really hard to say. The BE had more gain than I ever needed. The DS just sounds so different.... The DS has plenty of gain and with TS type pedal it can get near the BE but just different sounding. You really need to play one.
That probably didn't help you......sorry.
