It is a small plastic pedal effect sold for a small fee in Germany or the United States (18-20 euros). In France, it costs almost double. Why so much hate? Shame importers ...
The plastic is very hard, the switch is reactive, it is much more robust than one might think at first. In any case, it's the strongest air mini-pedals the same brand (pastrami, Grilled Cheese). For my part, I do not support it like crazy. So I do not see why that fart.
The buttons are placed at the back, it's a good thing because there is no risk of disrupting the stepping on it. However, they walk in the opposite direction of the knobs (roughly, when you look pedal is EVRS left it to turn the knob to get more gain, treble or volume). Well, the first time it will surprise you, but it should go ...
Little more has its charm, the blue LED ... class.
USE
Three knobs: Level, Gain, Tone. What more?
SOUND QUALITY
Essentially was an attack.
It is a generous distortion, natural, hyper reactive to the game of the person using it. It smashes any pedal that costs six to seven times more expensive ... basically, forget the distortion Boss. The Boss has a nice sound, certainly, but it often lacks natural, then, when you press it, you just feel like you just mounted the gain of your amp. It's amazing that a small pedal with such a low price so sound that is as respectful of the guitar and the amp. There are not that impression as the Boss that the sound comes from elsewhere. So the transition from clean to distorted sound will be smooth. I find that it does not make much noise, even with my single pickups (but they are very quiet) ... Anyway, it's happiness, gold bar. Bass and treble are respected, and of course like any pedal such that respects, it injects a bit of midrange in the sound.
At the palette, it will cool the distortion has the big rock that task. It is still very musical, very slightly compresses the sound, so it's not a dirty pedal, and you can not therefore be compared to a Big Muff - in this genre, I would recommend the Pastrami more magnificent Overdrive just as dirty must ...
NOTICE GLOBAL
Value amazing.
Frankly, I do not know how they do, at Danelectro. In a metal case, such a pedal easily sell in 150 euros, and everyone would cry genius. I even sold my Boss to make room for this little wonder in my Pedal Board. I played on dozens of pedals overdrive and distortion, and when I say that it is truly exceptional in any category, I'm not exaggerating. If after playing it, you prefer to opt for a Super Distortion Boss, well ... sorry, I can do to convince you nothing! Anyway, it breaks all the distortion pedal from 60 to 150 euros ... to find better, it is better now invest in a lamp pedal.
I read also that the Overdrive is just as well. frankly, I want to believe!
TO SUM: you buy it FOR THE PRICE AND YOU keep for QUALITY !!
