I have two, a Pale Green Compressor and a Little Green Wonder. Of the two my favorite is the Pale Green Compressor. The Little Green Wonder is every bit as good but it's my "Tube Screamer for those who hate Tube Screamers", it's not often that I need a pedal that goes into TS land, but when I do, this is my only choice. I'm very interested in the Pink Purple Fuzz judging by the video clips Fatback put up on YouTube.

Man, if I could only take one with me it would be the MGMV. I just have a grin from ear to ear every time I play with it.

I'd love to hear more about the MGMV, JofZ! Care to help whet my appetite for the imminent arrival of my own? I plan on trying it between PPF & EGD, hoping to get the best of both worlds in terms of stacked dirt sounds. Any secrets, tips, advice or hints to share with a new owner such as myself?

My favourite BJF is usually whichever happens to be the most recent addition to my collection! :o Having said that, I would find it impossible to live without my PGC and SBEQ, this pairing helped my rhythm sound come to life. They are the 'Bookends' of my tone, with PGC up front (after wah) and SBEQ on the end, they make everything else sound better.

Already I feel pangs of guilt for not choosing the PPF or EGD! Thank goodness we don't have to choose, let's just say that I have yet to play a BJF that didn't blow my socks off.

I always have the SBEQ and PGC on in my chain so I have to remember to tell people that when I talk about my board LOL. They are without a doubt 2 pedals if taken from me I would probably shed a tear and then beg for replacements.
I think the rest of the flavors come into play depending on what music you play, or how you play. I find the MGMV to be so inspiring that I have yet to find another pedal that puts me in a creative mood. It is just one of those pedals that once you stomp on the lightbulb goes on and an instant grin appears. You can dial out the vibe and it leaves this glassy, shimmer, slight boost. Something that is very addicting. The vibe is so organic that you forget it is coming from a pedal.
I love the EGDM, but if I could only have one OD pedal from Bjorn hands down the HB wins every time for me. It just smooths everything out and really has no equal on the market.
It also stacks with everything from everyone!
The PPF is another fav of mine. It is a nice fuzz if there is such a thing, with its older brother the CAF you can dial in any fuzz tone in your head.
I guess you can't go wrong with what ever you buy for your next pedal :D

I've got a HB, LGW, EGDM, and hopefully a BBOD (if I can find one) soon. I love them all equally for different applications. My goal is to have every BJF pedal (either really cool or really sad, or maybe both).

You, sir, are not alone.

Thus far, I have the HB and the EGDM and have the PPF, MGMV and the PGC high on my immediate acquisition list. Not to mention the rumours of a delay pedal, which will go to the top of my list immediately.

I have yet to be disappointed.

Cool or sad, I can not say objectively. I just know that I want them all.
