This is an overdrive / home disortion Marshall, easy-to-Operating Your, the switch is good, maybe a little "flat"

UTILIZATION

The knobs are quite progressive, especially that of medium, which is rare enough to be stressed Marshall

SOUND QUALITY

I was really surprised by this pedal, I first connected to a transistor amp (Fender frontman 212) the sound was pretty average, not very accurate and a little "dark" .. then I plugged on my Vox AC30, and then there! wahoo, the sound was very dynamic and we finally found the sound Marshall is simple to play again I felt on my old JTM30 but JCM2000 and boosted! the sound is very accurate and the grain! the midrange knob toggles sound metal enough, or rather very typical heavy Black Sabbath ("Paranoid) or Iron Maiden or Judas Priest (medium low) to sound very fat and round, yet I play with a telecaster, perfect for the AC / DC, and other vaiantes angusienne.

EDIT: it is simple, with the grave of my Tele pickups, I have the hair near the same sound as Blue Cheer or Cream on songs like "Sunshine of your love!" I put the pickups bridge and there you can easily find the sound of some tracks from Led Zep as "Rock'n'roll" or "communication breackdown" it's great! immagine then with a real LP! (Although for the Tele is one of the best guitars to play Led Zep, it's not me saying that jimmy page;)), with a little more distortion and less medium where we play without problems classic hard rock for years 70/80 "hole in the sky", "paranoid", "NIB" by Black Sabbath or Judas Priest qques tubes although why I prefer my metal muff, the riffs of AC / DC are a treat precision and dynamism, we start very quickly in frenzied solos intermnables easily by finding the sounds of big pus, it's great!

OVERALL OPINION

So it's a very good distortion pedal, which allowed me to have even better sound than the original distortion of my old JCM2000, provided you plug it into a good amp all lamps and a scratch said davoir . Indeed, on the transistor, the pedal seemed very soft and bland ..
I finally found the sound I was looking for with the unit, coupled with a booster, it's perfect! I now all I want her to walk with my worn metal muff and the clear sound of my Vox Duo / Tele!
