A STOCK U-67 combined with a Pultec to tweak the top and bottom exactly where you want it is really hard to beat. (I also really like API 550s for this.) It works on almost anybody and there are almost no sibilance problems. They also are really hard to pop. One thing to watch is that the pad is needed a lot more often than most people expect.

Modded U-67s are all over the map so I personally don't consider them to be real 67s!
