CT-64140 « THE overdrive pedal »
Published on 12/07/13 at 16:37It is an analog pedal that can go from a subtle overdrive saturation quite marked. An on / off button and a button to add the additional boost, it is dimmable. Note the presence of a toggle button 9V / 18V which is not a voltage selection button, but simply a kind of simulator 9V or 18V gain - and the passage from one to the other is obvious obtained on the drive. In any case, do not try to power the pedal with 18V!
UTILIZATION
The general configuration could not be simpler. It's classic. No need for a manual: turning the knobs we immediately what they are!
SOUND QUALITY
I use this pedal with all my guitars and all my amps. Whatever combination guitar / amp, this pedal does wonders! You can really make all the sounds you want overdrive: Settings "body", "feed" and "tone" used to give the touch of color to the sound and the gain setting is very progressive. With the gain in depth, we already have a very strong saturation (and maximum saturation of Okko + overdrive supported amp tube is added, it sends something!).
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a year. I did not try to compare it with other pedals: what I had heard on the Tube had convinced me that this is the pedal I needed! And since I have, I have not lost that belief!
What I would like the least? Orange color, maybe! Whatever. Who cares, what matters is the sound. And from this point of view, it is served!
The rest of this pedal is what I like the most. A note of Excellence for compliance with the dynamics of the game: it reproduces well the nuances of attack strings, the more it is not messy.
Its price is obviously high. But OKKO diablo seems indestructible and unstoppable. This is probably an overdrive for a lifetime.
Enthusiasts of all types of music (except maybe Metal), treat yourself to this overdrive for your entire life. You will not be disappointed!
