Has anyone used this pedal?
Im looking for an alternative to a Tube Screamer and since Behringer is pretty good at making modeling pedals I figured this would be a good start.

Don't know about this particular model, but Marnold has the T0800 "Vintage Tube Overdrive" pedal, which is their direct Tube Screamer knockoff (it's even green, like a TS). He posted his impressions HERE.
Amazon.com and Bananas.com sell it for $30; can't find it at the big online music stores, though.

You can find out from this guy about that Behringer pedal. He has may recordings with it and some good stories too.

I don't know about the others, but the TO800 is teh bomb, as the kids say. I've heard nothing but favorable things about the whole Behringer line from a sonic perspective. The only concern is their durability. Considering you can get three or four of them for the price of a "name" one, durability might not be that big of an issue.
Just realize that the TO800 IS a Tube Screamer clone. It does that very well. It gives that midrange boost that really helps a guitar cut through. It can get you on your way to an SRV tone. It is not a clean boost by any means. It will color your tone. For me and my purposes, that is A Good Thing and just what I was looking for. YMMV.
From what I understand, the Bad Monkey is basically a Tube Screamer with two tone controls.
