I purchased this pedal used..the seller said he only used it twice....it does look like new....is has good response but a major flaw with it,,which for me makes it unusable is,,the drop in volume,,when it is deployed....it's like going from 5 down to 2...yep,,it's very noticeable..playing through my marshall M G 100 FDX...and a sixty three fender strat...but for twenty bucks..it will be good for parts..and it does work..I would not recommend this unit..not worth what I payed...and they want twice + what I payed..
