«  Disto modern 15 years ago »

Published on 09/26/10 at 13:21
Disto modern late 90's, intended to give a nu-metal at the time, she stayed only two years on the market.
Setting strange distortion, volume, but only 1 knob contour for eq plus 1 knob punch that gives a mild acute autowah.
It is metallic red, very pretty.

UTILIZATION

Usage is very simple, the pedal is not versatile the contour control has a position that is quite instinctively with sufficient medium but not too dull. The punch can make the sound too cartoonish, so we avoid to use very much. You can put a lot of distortion without too much trouble, even with a fixed position ideal to 2am.

SOUND QUALITY

The sound is very clean, she throws up very little but with a level of distortion result. A special sound quite synthetic actually makes it interesting because it stands many other distos classic.

I use this pedal for the sound Deftones "My Own Summer (Shove It)" with a Bill Lawrence L500 XL-bridge guitar tone without adjustment, so very high that hits well in the XT2:) with a twist phaser over

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 5 years, she has never impressed but I use it regularly because of its offbeat side.
This is the only distortion that can sound clean, but also give a lot of distortion playing on one string.
As she throws up she is still very little audible band.
Unknown, little used, as it was marketisée Xtreme distortion which frankly laugh when compared to her sister the Wicked MT2.
