Maid fuzz, sympatoche ...
It's an analog pedal I think ... 'Will check.
In any case, the knobs allow a broad range of sounds (quoique. ..) while remaining in grunge. Knob with the "drive" at the bottom, one can even venture into the metal drooling, which is stain, very heavy and nag.
Two connectors jack (in / out), the three knobs push-push (retractable option sympatoche and useful during a shoot, it does not goes wrong), a small switch to the intensity of the "damage" . I talk about it further.
As you can imagine for you, it's a pedal, so no mount kit possible.
Metal box, footswitch pedal shaped metal, the cavity is made of metal. In short, the stocky, with two springs underneath. Do not hesitate, you can shoot in, it collects many small ...

UTILIZATION

Honest, I could buy out sounds to break down placos from my seller. 'Gaffe anyway, deposit it in the first level of graduation, even on a 10W ...
Three knobs, therefore, the "level" to set the volume at the exit, one tone knob (all the time in the factory setting: 5) and a knob "drive" to increase the gain.
In short, everything that is normal. We get it quickly enough the "destroy", whatever it takes, that task and that changes of his usual passing through your ear wax ...
Anyway, the thing most fun in the fuzz, the damage mod. Three positions: 0%, 10%, 100%.
The 0%, nothing, 10%, meaning that the sound starts to be very dirty, and finally 100%, the best of the best, like a Slash solo on a radio agony: the foot! In short, you set the level of "salisage" you want. A little broken up on the other hand, the switch is small.
What say? An easy access door (one push button to disengage the lock footswitch), an anti dérappant base and full metal. Brief. If with that you still have worries of weakness, we can not do anything for you ...
Note: the manual frankly useless.

SOUND QUALITY

A deconstructed to its possible harmonics very easy to pick up a potato ... And yet, I use a low-end scraper in the same brand *, ** as the amp, in short the trick, it sounds hollow void. Well, the first power chords, I did my amp roar of pleasure.
In short, that's good.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for some time, it rolls, it's like, I still keep.
What I love, but really the most is the damage mod! The highlight of the pedal, which stands out from the rest, and its roar capatité to an amp with a really cheap stuff.
Otherwise, bah I did not try many other models, but the ones I tested I was really disappointed, so ...
And € 51 for a pedal of this quality, it's really given, and it makes you want to do it again if we were to redo this choice. (Personally, this is to replace the fuzz of my Zoom 505 II).
