UTILIZATION

use could not be more simple.
Note that where the action is the most transparent is when placed in the effects loop.

SOUND QUALITY

Relatively neutral (hard to tell whether the small change is due to saturation of the lamps or staining of the pedal), headroom énoooorme!
Again, place the loop of effects!

OVERALL OPINION

Why pay more?
It is really solid and more
10/10! Clean sweep for MXR!

Pedal to the simplest expression! An output jack, a jack for external power supply, switch on / off true bypass and a control knob, you die easier! Pedal exudes strength, nothing to say.

UTILIZATION

So there it is very simple, we choose the level of the boost by adjusting the knob at least a minimum of boost and the higher you go the more boost!
Any other questions?

SOUND QUALITY

The boost is very transparent, it does not color your sound simply adds the level of output, effective for a solo boost. It is placed just before my pedal Barber "direct drive" to just give him a kick in the c. ..., when I turn to solo.
What else to say except that the true bypass is a plus because the signal remains the original one when the pedal is inactive.

OVERALL OPINION

I was looking for a boost pedal cheap, reliable and simple (they are all singles), found to OCCAZ on AudioFanzine for 30 € is the best deal I've ever done a long time .
I use it for several months now and probably for a long time. Simple and effective

It is a boost ...

UTILIZATION

Config simple: two jacks, a knob and a switch ...
A graduation and a knob a bit less sensitive, however, would have been a plus.

SOUND QUALITY

While there, I love it!
Gradually, this little pedal I become totally indispensable.
I use it early in the chain. Initially, I just wanted to boost the drive channel of my amp (which also works very well).
But ultimately, I also use it regularly on the clean channel. With humbuckers, and I get a slight crunch.
And with a Start or Tele, I get a warmer, more mellow, with even more dynamic, without any distortion either. MA-GI-QUE! Very good!
I can not consider myself out of this little trick!

So in terms of defects, one might say it is not totally transparent ... but Me, I prefer to put that on behalf of its qualities as it brings a little something I found ... spellbinding.
In short, this is obviously subjective, but as level grain level gaming experience, I think it's great.

OVERALL OPINION

I use daily for 2 years.
I tried other models, but it did not have this "mojo".
Level value for money, nothing to say and do it again if I buy it back of course! A real discovery, this pedal!
