All user reviews of 4/5 for the Danelectro DD-1 Fab Tone

Quite variable metal distortion for some knobs.
Ideal for punk / grunge, metal or rock chic.

UTILIZATION

It's a small detail, but the grip knobs is not terrible ... Yet if I do not have big fingers! Activation meets the finger and the eye, no problem there, I would say it is perfect.
Configuration, let's talk. Like the treble? You will! Personally, I prefer to very low, or even try to cut them because they attack and eat the rest. The distortion knob is well known, it is not very helpful on this pedal. I prefer to reduce the background to have a clear minimum.
Basically, here are my settings: Vol = 10h, 12h = Bass, Treb = 7:30; Fab = 7h
With that, I play like NOFX Red Fang and it goes very well!

SOUND QUALITY

Very good sound quality. The presence of the buzz does not exceed.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for some and I am totally satisfied. I have not yet done scene with the beast but is widely expected to be the case. The affected Dave Grohl will enjoy!

I bought it off ebay for 25 bucks

I love the incredible punch and tone it puts out, I've been using it for over a year and its amazing.

This is probably caused from the past owner but I had to re-soder the peice that grabs onto the ac adaptor because if it wasnt completely level there would be a horrible connection and mess with me.

the construction is road worthy, hard-ass casing, the knobs are easy to take off but eh.

If its the best deal around, take it, brand new it should rip for years to come

The fab tone sounds pretty good when you first try it all that you seem to be able to get is really fuzzy heavy sounds but as you play with it you learn to get pretty good low gain stuff. The trick is not the run the bass and treble controls real high start with them both a zero (which isn't really zero) and turn the bass up but leave the treble down (turning the treble above 5 makes the fabtone sound like paper thing screechy fuzz. But keeping it down and it sounds good. The distortion control should be labeled sustain because that pretty much what it controls which I think is pretty cool. The volume is cool to turn up really high and leave the fab far left the treble about 1/4 and the base about 2/3 or a little less It gets a cool classic rock sound with the neck pickup. Its very quite unless the volume is way up (its not too bad with single coils as long as the volume is down) One on the coolest things about this pedal is when the fab (sustain) control is all the way up (hard right) when you hole a note after a few seconds the oscilating (sp?) effects comes in before the note feedsback It sounds really cool

The knobs are plastic turing the treble to high and it sounds like crap. I don't like how


the knobs are so close together. It looks really strong on the outside but when I opened it up I was very dissapointed cold solder joints all around some one even left a piece of solder connected to 2 different connections!! (I broke it off tho) All the knobs/pot shafts are plastic the smooth footswitch everyone likes the internal switch part is plastic and I doubt could stand up to the abuse


But it did only cost 60 bux. Its diffentally worth 60 dollars the sounds is pretty good (not really like a tube amp tho) I'm really fond of the plastic parts but If it really worried me I would replace them. I don't play out or anything so its not that big a deal. I think its worth the price Just try it out It sounds pretty good.

I use an Ibanez RG470 with seymour duncan pickups


for an amp I use a Crate GX 2-12 I also played it with a Peavey Transtube Special 2-12 (which I used to own) and it sounds good with both but I really need to get a tube amp
