Yeah we all bought them after @SgtThump recommended it., haha.
Pretty good pedal, I dont think it was like a Tubescreamer, it was more of a gain boost which was very transparent, no speedbump when you engaged it.
That new model looks mad, the old one had nowhere near the amount of gain that thing does. Sounds good.

My bad monkey experience was epic. $30 and then sent it to dude for his bad gorilla mod. It was destroyed in transit. So the Bodenhammer dude made me a custom Ibanez tone lock pedal. Can’t remember if it was a tubescreamer or a distortion. He did whatever it was that he did as well as putting in a led. He did all that just for the cost of the mod. So he lost money on me. I know later people said he scammed them but damn he hooked me the fuck up. I wound up giving it to Ralph or kage later… gainfreak and steel kage for the og’s…. If you know you know…

Is the bad monkey circuit tubescreamer based or its own thing?

to be honest ..... 90% of the Overdrives out there are tubescreamer based ....
the Monkey is close to screamer .......I think it's usually described as a tubescreamer without the mid hump

I had an original and sold it when it got hot a few years ago, after someone posted a YT video comparing it to a Klon! 
It was one of those "better mousetrap" type pedals an improved upon TS. I have no interest in the new one for the price alone and the fact that I need another OD pedal like I need another Butt.
The other pedal that was hot was the original pre-cease and desist Danelectro Transparent OD. Apparently it was a 1:1 copy of a Timmy for not a lot of shekels.
