UTILIZATION

straightforward, typical for a disto

SOUND QUALITY

1. generates an incredible breath to limit the noise stress: unusable for my config
2. a constant: the tone knob is impossible after half of the race (ultra shrill)
3. the distortion is sharp and responsive to the game can achieve high levels of saturation and the pedal is really made for it (even by setting the gain to a minimum, it does not reaches the quality of an overdrive)
4. pedal "eats" the bass seriously, for me completely rédibitoire
(Not to mention the mediums that are almost absent)

OVERALL OPINION

I wanted to taste the legend but I'm quickly back down in my little cloud
I think the Chinese specification leaves little expoir ultimately even if users of the amended by keeley (ultra-seeing eye) told me that they were not convinced so far
Briefly, I had to play with 5 or 6 times to bring myself to sell it
in sum, no interest
in the same brand, I recommend the BD-2 blues driver that is classified under the overdrive / distortion that sends severely without the problems mentioned above (although the lack of bass ...)
of course, I recommend investing in one economize for Fulltone OCD for example ... it's just day and night (or otherwise!)
