Attenuator obviously will be a THD Hot Plate.

So what kind of pedal should I get? JoBo OD or something?

Right now without the Hot Plate it's hard to get a tone down...I think I'm tone-confused.

dude, yeah, you NEED the hotplate. mesa triple at low volumes just wont be worth a damn unless you got it cranked to the hotplate.
you also really do want a good boost up front. works wonders on almost any tube amp out there. People are huge on the Bloody murder, but as far as ive heard its a bit bassy, and with a mesa that could be a bit much. im a low end fiend though so id probably fine with it, but id ask joe what he thinks is best

+1 on the hotplate. I happen to live where I can crank my amps whenever I want but for most home situations a hotplate is a must with a triple!

Aboot mah pedals. The Bloody Murder DOES NOT add any bass before the amp. This is a common misconception. A stock tubescreamer starts rolling off low frequencies below 720Hz, a Bloody Murder starts rolling them off at about 440Hz. It still cuts out some bass which is why it still has a tightening effect. My filter just gets along well with low tunings where I think a stock TS totally ruins a low B. You get more bass by plugging straight in than with any kind of boost pedal.

That said if you're wanting to go cheap after all these recent investments I have a Chaos modded SD-1 I'd let go really cheap! It's got a beat up paint job but works 100%. The SD-1 is the pedal I can make sound closest to the BM

IMO a recto NEEDS an OD pedal more than any other amp! It's night and day with them and once you step on a boost you'll never be able to live without one again! It will help you saturate the preamp and get better tones at low volumes as well.

I now feel like a better man since I noticed I made ibzorange's sig!!! Raptor Jesus FTW!

We're part of the elite JoBo.

Xtremevillan, it would be wise to grab this

Megadeth on another forum recommended me

If you can afford it, I highly suggest a Chaos Modded Maxon OD808 from Joe Bodenhamer (LordOvChaos is his user name on ss.org).

1) Bahahaha on going cheap, if I spent this much I know I can/have to spend at least another 3-400, that's with the Hot Plate being new and all.
2) I guess we can make a deal on the SD-1.
