very pretty little box. 3 knobs: volume, gain and tone.

UTILIZATION

Use simple. Like any overdrive.

SOUND QUALITY

Huge. As the previous reviewer said, it's thick and creamy, but without drooling, with a beautiful grain. I play with a Vigier Excalibur HSH DiMarzio and telecaster. it sounds extra everywhere. emulation of the Fender tweed is convincing.

OVERALL OPINION

qq days use and I know she will never leave my pedal board. She finally dethroned the TS9. It gives me the ultimate overdrive. I particularly appreciate the sensitivity of the circuit to the attack. Gently cleans you stay in, once you attack a little harder, it crunche nicely to then go to sth more hot and distortion if you scratch like an ox. But it's still fantastically vintage, ideal for blues rock to Keith Richards, or more like acdc hard.
