    OVERALL OPINION

    So my opinion is a bit special, because this pedal is very very well made (no doubt about it) but compared to my Mojo JTM with which I wished the couple, it was just very, very blah.
    Let me explain this pedal tested alone (and especially before Mojo JTM) has all the qualities of a boutique pedal: quality cabling, switch knobs and top, true bypass, and excellent sound with setting options very interesting with the famous Cream and Cut. The tonal palette is wide enough, it will sound an almost clean to overdrive that allows you to tease an AC / DC or Aerosmith without any worry, but it is not a distortion, it's still an overdrive. It was something in the clear saturation in the sense that every note arpeggio even doing very well, no sound to mush. The "Cream" as the name suggests will add a creamy side to her, there will be bass and lower midrange a little firmer in pushing the knob to right.The "Cut" for his acts on the highs and wired backwards, I mean, the more you shoot, the more high frequencies are cut. Coupled with the Cream you get to things nice and very diverse. The volume of the pedal against disappointed me because we still have to push almost two thirds to three quarters or to have the same volume when the pedal is bypassed.
    It remains, however, in an area that goes from blues to rock, AC / DC style Foo Fighters, Jack White ... But the big task that will require elsewhere. So overall very good pedal with the shop that everyone has in mind mind.
    Now to comparo with Mojo JTM because the goal was to make them play together on certain sounds:
    Well slap, the Mojo literally burying the Benrod. Already, the reserve volume is really consistent eten addition, JTM sounds "big", not genre heavy distortion, but really big sound even at low gain, it seems a really thrown forward with its bottom and the lower midrange as it is not permissible to give a monster magnitude signal, a fabulous grain compresses only the fifth in the last race of the drive. So it sounds airy, open, close, it takes its place in a mix. What really awesome. At the same time, the only thing you can really blame the pedals Tom (NOS in Paris), it may be the peeling paint too quickly ^^.
    So my Cream Can in all this, bah when I passed it after the comparison test with the JTM, well ..... the sound seemed anemic, small, feeble, I really want more of the plug; and even by coupling it eats dynamics Mojo whether before or after the chaining, it adds a gain that will compress its there or Mojo let the sound breathe and the knob Cream Cut and make gadget blow. Because the tone of the Mojo, barely turned really is and does not pretend. I'm a bit radical but it's really the feeling that I had. And it was strange for a pedal 150 new bullets. I think she is nevertheless because the build quality is to go, and the sound itself is very good, it's just that I had better before I think; I really like the texture of my JTM, and in the end I took a 2nd Mojo that this one will, fits really well with the first.
    Note that I tested these two pedals on my Laney L5T-112, so the basis of the clean sound is still downright good.

    So Benrod I certainly retesterai still occasionally out of curiosity, hoping that other commodities will further convince me. In the end, I sold it.


    NB: sorry for this review pretty special, but I was forced to give my opinion also on a 2nd pedal to illuster weaknesses of Benrod. So we have a little 2 reviews in one.

    Overdrive distortion, true bypass, made in France.

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple.
    4 buttons, 1 switch.
    FYI: I play the Apache or shadows Ray Vaughan eg in clean sound like fender or vox, and cat, steve vai, or black sabbath on the type mesa overdrive. Try it, it is rather funny, especially when you see the face of the people who look at the pedal and scratches his head when you play cowboy from hell hahaha!

    SOUND QUALITY

    Here's my take, watch it stings.
    A D, do not compare to a tube screamer as sure it has nothing to see, it is a distortion, with one grain at a vox in my opinion. Vintage with a vintage guitar but not that much with a modern guitar.
    Or three quarters …

    Or three quarters of the test, and another video on the net are doing with simple strat bobinage.Alors do not trust.
    The sound of Judge Fredd, I have never found the no longer with the unit ....
    The sav BENROD does not exist, in case of failure, you Sort this out. C's lived. Thank you very much.
    Pedal a real true bypass! Ptin c is not hard to see, you unplug it, if it sounds, c is true bypass!
    I m used primarily in overdrive, c is, for example, that it transforms me the sound of a transistor amp into that of a tube amp and that, c is the top. As against such in a fender lamp, it m bored. Character without character, it is always hard to explain. It is very inspiring to me and it is the largest c.
    I re-emphasizes the bypass, she eats nothing !!! Even the batteries last a long time, not against trapping by and it also is designed c.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have it for 3 years I think, a nice gift for my wife, so I would keep that until it burns.
    Mine has never bougée against by my friend who has had 2 failed was vagabond from the outset by his dealer Albi I think. We try to reach BENROD in vain .for Made in France it Derche doing wrong, it's not the pedals 20 euros.quand luthier I see, the other side of the world who send me the parts and answered me in Casa Anna-Paula the day
    Without this history, the pedal is very good. Not much character but in top component and it is also important to let the transparent guitare.assez sing really.
    I'm still glad to have it even if I do not Rasht.
    After j not like wampler handmade so I'm also a bit demanding ptetre lil;)

    Overdrive par excellence, of CreamCan Benrod will satisfy all guitarists looking for a vintage sound.
    The slight overdrive boost your real tube amp, this pedal does not lack versatility.

    UTILIZATION

    4 knobs: volume, gain, cut, cream.
    Volume and Gain interact perfectly to give you a good range of sounds more crunchy with more biting.
    The Cut (like a Vox amp) is the opposite of a "Tone" and cuts frequencies. Personally it is set in the first quarter between 8am and 9am to compensate for the lack of treble on the pedal.
    The Cream is defined as the smoothness of the pedal, but personally it is set to 0.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I use it before ABY-Box sends the sauce on a Marshall JCM900 (Channel A, Gain = 10) and a Vox AC30 (Canal + Normal Boost Earnings = 8), so much so that it boosts my sound.
    I use it as main overdrive, and I + drop off the knobs on my Les Paul for a little clearer sound.
    However, if I need to have some more potatoes, I turn the BOOST circuit my Box of Rock is located just before the Creamcan. Try it!! Creamcan + Box of Rock: the sound does not change the style, but it gives you a slap, and screaming your lights a little harder!

    OVERALL OPINION

    Very good pedal, solid, handmade.

    it amazes me there or it is in front of the Red Fuzz Benrod it downright sublime Fuzz where it sends heavy can dig the fuzz with Cream Cut and just for that it tears, it nears perfection with a Strat
    Otherwise do not expect the same that made the videos with Judge Fredd on a HP Alnico she does not like on a HP Ceramic found somewhat the same sound

    OVERALL OPINION

    Pure Drive is not bad, but quite versatile at the same time it has its charm and character that is Benrod we like it or not, it is a matter of taste ...
    According to the Red Fuzz, there is a pure killing was reached the heights ... I do not know if I would do this choice with another Fuzz, this is what it would be less so ... I keep waiting, just for info this is a pedal that I bought after selling so well it's twice as store bought ... because of this damn Red Fuzz which I really want to master the subtleties and possibilities ... and thanks to this pedal can do it, so no regrets seen services rendered to my Fuzz

    Overdrive pedal in his novel (based Benrod, I have not tried everything yet). Metal case. She has four beautiful knobs turned super nice, neither too hard nor too soft, well-spaced (in the hands of loggers, you never know ...). Another specific, the 'Cut' was the exact opposite effect that 'Tone' on other pedals turned all the way right and you have more acute (such as Proco RAT).
    What bothers me is that when you see what's inside, the case would be slightly smaller (I think of those who have more room on their pedalboard).

    UTILIZATION

    The winning race is perfect for what I wanted: similar to what can make a TS9 for example. To continue the comparison with the TS9, she eats less bass. I also find that the TS9 "spoke a little nose" with my gear. And two parameters and Cream Cut can find a varied range of his.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Tested with Hot Noiseless Strat equipped with a Duesenberg 49er and a Marshall JTM60. This is the pedal I was dreaming. It also behaves well with two guitars. I can get what I want: sounds hot, aggressive, the light saturation punchy sound good (it is still very far from the world of big distortion anyway).

    OVERALL OPINION

    Not really knowing what I wanted, I tried several overdrive pedals and different price ranges from one euro to 200th 50aine about:
    -The sonic glory of Rocktron missing a little mellow for me and with a character that I liked any more than that.
    -The TS9 and TS808 (I know if it was the Maxon or Ibanez but short): this was the kind of overdrive that I wanted but they lack bass and the kind, I preferred the Cream Can.
    -The T-Rex Mudhoney: I liked but I did not find quite versatile and Tone knob is poorly done I think. It's not really a pure overdrive too.
    -The Fulltone OCD: it's true that it is great but I found it too mat (not atypical if you want). Finally, I preferred the character of the Cream Can.

    The value is really good for me: it's handmade in France already. And for me, it sounds as good as the 200th pedals I try.

    Amateur Blues and Blues / Rock, Benrod Welcome home!

    If you want the sound of Paul No one, Louis Bertignac, Bill Perry, Jimmy Vaughan, Tommy Castro .. This pedal is for you ... You can go all the same in Australia and tease the Blues ACDC vitamins according to the dosage of cream that you put in the recipe! less the cream and the sound is dry and back recess .. you can even play with the pickups and the tone of your guitar you "Bombtrack" by RATM even though it is not the ideal pedal for that .. but the illusion is present!

    This will bring the Cream Can sustain a guitar and will give you the sound of tube amps cornering them ... particularly effective with a Stratocaster, I dare not imagine what it can give with P90;)
    Note that the notes stand out both in agreement that arpege and the sound is very clean and clear (some would say too clean) and harmonics fuse a wonder!

    This pedal can also be used boosted by a TS9 (Ibanez) or Blues-Driver2 (Boss), but these are two pedals that boost the Cream Can not vice versa! It just has itself for that matter!

    Video CreamCan ( https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8f8tl_test-benrod-creamcan_music )

    Rating: 9 for the multiplicity of sounds that you can get

    OVERALL OPINION

    My opinion? although I do not use it for a long time (a mere 1 week) leave far behind the pedal all you've heard in matter of over-drive .. we wonder if there is no lamp hidden in the box. Ideal of a lamp in clean amp it is pushed around as long as you ask him .. in fact it is waiting for that;)

    Its main drawback? what it will take several to fully enjoy all the sounds it produces!

    Its price put some (see the website of Benrod> http://www.benrod-electro.fr/ ) but its only acquisition will replace most of the pedal advantageously cheaper and will make you forget the Blues Driver and TS9 supposed to have the same effect!

    Another plus, this pedal is a creation of Benrod, the first in fact and will make you a "pioneer" of the brand which you will be proud to wear loud colors of this young company will continue to climb in are sure !

    Rating: 8 (out of reach of all budgets, but the build quality and sound are present! And Rod is a partner present and friendly;)

    UTILIZATION

    uh?? we plug you put the gain, volume, fiddles, it tickles and sounds!


    SOUND QUALITY

    The effects are they effective, adaptable and sufficiently GPs?
    oh yes! I can not dye so the dynamics is that it brings to its standard, the determination of the gain of cream and the cut opens a palette of unique sounds everything is interactive and easily found a sound that is hallucinate on what we play, but you touch a knob ds found another sound amazing too, really a very good quality pedal to what I did before?
    Which instruments do you use?
    stratocaster 91 + with 57/62 pickups custom shop / Fender bassman Ten of 1972


    OVERALL OPINION


    For how long have you been using it?
    ten days
    Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
    I tried a lot of boss pedals, marshall, i was more attracted by Gnrale distos amps lamps I had Hughes and Kettner Tube 100 / Trilogy / Laboga studio reverb /
    seen that the voltage does not saturate bassman but clear sound killer, I wanted a pedal that do sing with my Start, this is it I found!
    What is the specific feature you like best, the least?
    no breath, true bypass, dynamic standard, Answers to, clarity in saturation, even the sound of fire arpges god!
    How do you report qualitprix?
    very good, "when even by delegates from a budget, but you can sell everything else APRS, so it is good, so we found it!
