MGR/aznnebulon « Boss ODB-3 Bass Overdrive »
Published on 08/29/01 at 15:00I paid $70 for this box at my local mars music superstore...
It is all metal and has a really durable look, feel and reputation. The knobs are sorta small, but they work great. The sound from this stompbox is more of a fuzz than a gain-boosted overdrive, but this thing can reach all levels. From a light growl on the low end or a shade of distort to screaming thrash metal, this thing can do them all.
The color. yellow is not my type!
And one more thing - this baby is noisy! You can always turn it off after you play, of course....
Superb. Roland does a very good job.
If you need a bass effect, and you like adding a fine touch to your tone, get it. If you're a bass purist (4 strings, a clean sound) don't.
