SO! What is a fun, slightly more expensive overdrive pedal? Still want a sound along the lines of the OD-2 and 250 it seems, but maybe with some more fun functionality, like starve, bias etc. Don't want to spend a ton, and don't want something super large (even though it won't fit as many toan fairies

Bringing this here instead of filling up the Gear Goals thread with this bullshit.
In short, I've been jamming with different people on and off lately, and while I always find room for my oscillating fuzzes, I sometimes miss having a lighter drive in there instead of switching between madness and clean. Have been rolling off the volume on my Wolf Computer, which gets the job done, but have been thinking about getting something dedicated.
So, what good, cheap, easily available drives are out there? I seem to remember some of you praising the Boss OD-2r as a hidden gem. And qersty recommended the OD-3 as well. Seems like both can be had for about $50 on the local used market.
What I "need" is low-to-mid gain, treble and bite, note definition for chords, all that boring stuff. Bonus if it can do some fun stuff as well.
