DOD Distortions

I bought this pedal for 70 bucks off of e-bay. I was looking for a heavy distortion tone for rhythm and lead guitar. There isn't much i like about this pedal. Where do i begin. First off the distortion is awful,way to muddy. This pedal claims to emulate death metal bands such as carcass and napalm death , but this just isnt true. The tone is also terrible for solos. It make way to much noise. It sounds very cheap. All 5 guys in the band got a laugh out of this pedal. If you go to musicians friend you can here this crap pedal there. This pedal is made of metal so it is durable . I got rid of mine 3 hours after i bought it , so i can't really say. This pedal is a waste of time. Do not buy this pedal. If you need a heavy tone , buy a boss mt-2 it . It's still the champ. My custom les paul sound bad through this unit enough said.

Bought this distortion box at Daddy's Junky Music in Western Massachusetts for close to $50 WITH the AC adapter. This little treasure is amazing. Crank the volume and the fuzz, and watch the windows shatter. Tone the volume and the fuzz down a bit and get more mellow melodic sounds. Take all the fuzz off, and get a overdriven blues tone. Haven't found anything I dislike about this distortion pedal, except that when I first purchased it, I had to toy with all the controls (volume, low, high, fuzz) to get my personal best tone. Rock solid, hasn't broken yet. Get's abuse and still stands tall. BUY THE AC ADAPTER TO AVOID THE BATTERY PROBLEM!!! $20 EXTRA BUCKS!!! Buy it now, and never look back!
