That EBS sounds nice! Very natural and punchy...
There are times when the synthetic sounding ones (like that Scrambler) can serve a purpose, though. I did the melody on this with the Maestro W-2, which has that buzzy squarewave sound 1-2 octaves down. Its a couple tracks of Alembic Distillate (played in the high register) -> Masestro -> Sola Sound wah:
Its ok in that context, but maybe not so great with a funky bassline
Just depends how you're planning to use it. The POG would be good for stuff like this, since it has that synthetic sound.
Oh and thanks for that Cactus clip up there. I know what I'm listening to later!
