Best value:
Excellent
Wah-wah, in, out, or 9V DC in battery.
Robust metal housing, access to the battery by unscrewing the 4 screws 3 below (can be done without screwdriver).
Extremely simple, nothing to say.
UTILIZATION
I use it in my pedal board with a power supply. It works well.
But:
I would have preferred a slightly longer stroke and a switch over "plain", see a small LED indicator on / off. Let me explain, the "click" the switch is very quiet and loud noise situation, it is not always easy to realize if the pedal has been activated or deactivated.
The wah pedal Rocktron Utopia G300 my package is better at this level. Best switch, small LED and the stroke length is adjustable.
SOUND QUALITY
The sound quality is very good. Perfect for rock.
I use it with an Epiphone Les Paul (Seymour Duncan), an Ibanez and a JEM555 Fame Forum IV (Seymour Duncan) on an amp Hughes & Kettner Switchblade.
The price / sound is simply excellent.
OVERALL OPINION
This is an excellent entry-level pedal, sounding more than correct. Not true bypass but sufficiently transparent for my taste.
If I have to buy one, I probably eyeing towards the higher end but it will unfortunately not the same budget ...
