Value For Money : Poor
Good old pedal Overdrive / Distortion kind vintage
analogue
ultra-basic connection: 1 hall, 1 output, an adapter (optional adapter)
Full plastic shell is fragile, but lightweight in the gigbag to go on Repeat '.

UTILIZATION

The search for a sound is ultra-simple and the results more than convincing.
It adjusts the saturation, color with the treble-bass, then the output level of the signal.
The battery replacement is very tedious, but at this price, do not be choosy ... most is the sound that the animal product!

SOUND QUALITY

We enter the heart of the matter!
I am an "old" guitarist of 40 brushes, and I can say I've seen a few pedals under my feet. And then I can say I am amazed! Like everyone I had an a priori negative behringer (cheap quality, no brand) but I went and compared to the obvious: they know how to sound just like Boss, ProcoSound and others.
This sounds really TO 800 Ibanez TS! is little to say as the resemblance is striking. I think as well as the amp used and the settings, it is almost impossible to distinguish a difference. Only the snobbery of some could deny it ... and honestly, why the original expensive to play on a 15W amp transistors purchased at the local flea market??
Anyway if you play on a Soldano "all lamps" to 20000 balls you do not need this kind of overdrive pedal for your ...
In all cases you will find "the Son" in you guided by your ears, not your pride.
on the other hand, metal of all kinds, go your way, this is confined to the register TO800 vintage distortion, nothing to smash the walls! Hendrix fans, Moore, Led Zep, Deep Purpple etc ... welcome to the club of its fat as 70 '. A treat!

OVERALL OPINION

Purchased from Thom ... port included for 27.40 three weeks ago, I repeat that this is a bargain. I had several OD or Dist Boss from home, I have a Proco RAT2 (for its velvety in jazz) and I reaffirm that behringer makes a modest addition to my set.
The value for money is astounding. I know that this pedal seems more fragile than the competition, but for from 4 to 10 times cheaper!
This is my second purchase after Helbabe behringer wah (great too!).
Tip: try this absolutely TO800, the only risk is to adopt it.

After three concerts for the music festival, I confirm all the good that I think the sound of the pedal, and all included in the PA before 300 people sounds really pro. A treat, I was congratulated for my "sound" without knowing ...
As against a flat to very light knobs that disrupt the slightest flick: need to be careful before playing that everything is in order!
