SOUND QUALITY

I met this pedal by chance, a few years already, given as a gift at a sale in Cygnus ... I already have everything we need, but I plugged "to see" .. Finally, to listen, rather
the first time on a Marshall JCM 600 head lamp full, clean channel.
And then .... the slap! A sharp crunch, rich bass in definition, very decent medium. If I dared ... I would go: a sound close to the JCM 800. Pure Marshall. The good "Roar!" But that was already duplicated the overdrive channel head.
Then this pedal is broken down ... (?) Management trash.

4 years later, having good memories of this tupperwaere distortion, I am redeemed a OCCAZ to power a CRATE V18 (all lamps) upgraded (see forum) that I wanted to find the "Roar".
And there ... the big disappointment! Sound flat, bland, dynamic type DS-1 anemic ...
So she left on the second hand market.

OVERALL OPINION

What améne me to say that this pedal will sound FAB completely differently depending on the amp.
You may say "like any pedals!" and indeed what is particularly striking!
A trial is therefore required before purchase.
At the same time, given its argus OCCAZ not take on too much risk ...
So the question "With experience, you do again this choice?"
and saw that the first one gave me: YES!
;-)
