Pedal reccomendations for Marsha

I'm wondering if a good clean boost like the Tone Freak Buff Puff would be better. Tried the Noc3 pure drive...it was OK but noticably colored the tone and was too much. Also interested in the EP type pedals...Xotic, Clinch and now Badgerplex has a new one. I'm thinking an OD is overkill on top of a mountain of gain already...seems to choke the amp even a lower settings.
Not sure if the Naked OD will do that or keep the dynamics alive...what about the Landgraff Dynamic OD? Is it an option, kind of pricey. Let's hear your opinions!

I just picked up a Rocket Fuel. After I get it, I throw in my two cents. :D
 
Thanks...I've got a line on a used RF and hope I can snag it.
Sounds like the ticket.
 
You will like the RF. It is the one pedal that I really have a lot of faith in. It is quiet and subtle. The boost goes from unity to 30db and is usually enough drive the tubes nuts. Kick the OD in to thicken the EQ a bit and add some sustain if needed on an amp, which generally isn't the case on a Marsha! The little bass response switch in the middle is very responsive too in adding a little more thump.

Thanks guys...taking your advice and ordering the Rocket Fuel....now comes the 4-5 week wait. I've given up on finding one for sale...LPfreak beat me to the last one I saw out there...If anyone has a used Rocket Fuel they want to sell let me know as I'm ordering it tomorrow.
