Overdrive lamp manufacture by BK Butler.
At first it's all analog.

(See pictures on my profile AF)

UTILIZATION

Super easy to use, except that it must obtain an adapter to plug electric Franais.
4 rglages for my MODEL (there is a SETTING THE MODEL with Bias):
- The output volume
- Acute
- Low
- Drive
The trs rglages are efficient, the solid knobs.

SOUND QUALITY

GAIN! This really sends pedals!
There are not many types of sound, only variations of crunch and overdrive mga.
It really gets a sound standard that I think is worth the investment.
I use a Start with changes in microphones, and a VOX AC30 rgl in crunch dry.
I get a great big fat well, trs sharp in the treble with great sustain and roundness in the bass. The sound is really solid with beautiful serious, and at the same time keep a look "authentic" blues trs.
I think it will also highlight the wonderful characters from your amp and your guitar.
That's what I was looking for!

This is one of characters that will fit pedals fans to analog.
Mr Butler made ​​his publicity surrounding David Gilmour and Eric Johnson, which connotes the pedals a bit for my part, which is perfect for noisy rock muscle and desire (Unsane, Shellac ...). I think it even fits some mtalleux!

Once activated it is really the killer!

OVERALL OPINION

I used a recording, and I have a direct command APRS.
The price is quite lev (see my post on the forum), but it is an investment in the long run, this probably will not lose PDAL little value over time.
Obviously it is possible to change the type of lamp according to the research and again, the rglages are quite effective.

LE +: rglages sound and its robust appearance and dedicates power supply, plugged directly into the case. Its size is impressive but I like it! It's handmade!
THE -: slamming the switch when pressed, which makes it a bit hard trigger (it's like to better understand the small clone Electroharmonix). For the price, Mr Butler could also invest in electric plugs for the European customers!

And I had tried several pedals before, but this one a personality that suits me perfectly. And few people in France seems possde he said. It's really a terrible sound coming out of the pedals!
I think once we found her Son, do not invest hsiter, so I would do this choice, even if it's pretty chronic.
