quality / price unbeatable!
a nice little gift to your guitar, which will certainly be very grateful ...!

You who read this review and still ask you questions, do not hesitate, dives into the ocean duffer you'll see, it is good !!!

This is an overdrive pedal fully analog bass, hand assembled by Nico and his staff.
Just the look of the pedal is amazing, the finish "rust" is very well done, all the inscriptions are engraved on the case, that way no risk that it will clear and it is really class. It is sent with a 9v battery inside, and has an input for a power supply.
The pedal is very solid, no worries.
I put 10, according to the issues of look it's true that it's very subjective.

UTILIZATION

Could not be more simple, volume, gain and presence. We feel the escalation in its knobs. It is not difficult to navigate.

SOUND QUALITY

I played on a home valvedrive EBS, I had that shit with this pedal, I really wanted something else to stop me taking the cabbage.
Nothing to say is excellent, I wanted an overdrive very powerful, and well I'm in the crunch you want in here, I'm delighted.
I love the sound, it is very natural, I am considering buying a full tube amp head, well I think already keep this pedal, and I'm even looking forward to the combine, I think it's going avoiner severe !
After attention is very very simple, there is no équalo strictly speaking, just a presence that can adjust the treble and high mids, so good you have to like the sound of the pedal, but you still have to blame for not like it I think ...
With my musicman it's just perfect, a big crunch to overdrive to death, but it lacks the heat lamp behind an amp, not the pedal is cold, far from it, but replacing my head by a full transistor tube I dread to think what it must give!
I tried also on a Warwick Corvette, it sounds more modern, but really huge.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had very little, not need more time to be more confident, I love it! This is exactly what I wanted for my sound, I play the Post Rock / Post Hardcore, pending the full tube I already have a sound that kills. For now I play with everything flat on the amp head, I would use just the équalo group to successfully integrate my sound to the guitar and drums.
I put around 10 just because she agrees perfectly with what I wanted, I have adopted, and I have a friend who tried it who intends to buy one once it has the money. In short I am conquered.
In addition, the guys are passionate Mazzette, I discussed a little with them by mail, they are good tips, wonderful and serious!

Hi!
I called Antoine M, I am F Am guitarist www.myspace.com / weareofoam ( http://www.myspace.com/weareofoam ) and drummer in the group broke Stony www.myspace.com / stonybroke ( http://www.myspace.com/stonybroke ) j uses effects Mazzetti in my two groups and the sound of these pedals is my taste trs close to perfection: Dynamic impeccable, very fat analog sound to rock gnral trs but thanks a versatile range of broad and rglage vintage design leaves me no indiffrent!
here I wanted to give my opinion because of these effects pedals are the practice of someone truly passionate about quality and craftsmanship worthy of the great brands do it for me for sure!
D also you can come up costs on the myspace pages of my groups (f Am 100% Mazzetti and page stony broke the track "keep it" is perfect for Illuster Mazzetti sound!)

UTILIZATION

The pedals Mazzetti is very simple to use!

SOUND QUALITY

Guitar and bass

OVERALL OPINION

J uses these effects for a year or so.
J loves the sound and design, quality price ratio trs INTERESTED!

We meet here face a vintage look pedals to wish that, as others say Discoveries opinion could be on a beach in Normandy or in the decor of a spin off MadMax / Spinal Tap .

Connect simple input - output and power supply socket. (Although the pedals consumes so little power supply that may seem superfluous, a battery to use abundance without ever having fear of falling behind.

UTILIZATION

Is he really need a manual for pedals of this type? I do not think.
You plug, rglez, ring ...
The config is simple, 3 knobs (gain, prsence, volume), simple, effective, what do not you look empchera srieusement on rglages because the knobs are very sensitive and allow you to explore a wide range of sounds.

SOUND QUALITY

Before buying the pedals, I have tried many pedals (electro harmonix, boss, electro harmonix re etc..).

We are here facing the grain rolls and versatility, with a dynamic any evidence, that the most fastidious rgalera pedals allowing them to spend according to their attack by a "nearly clear "a real big fat Overdriver her.

The three knobs as sensitive, Mazzetti allows you to switch from a clear boostlgrement something more goes into it.
Big advantage, bass are not "food" which is really not ngligeable same as it is when what we want our bass player ...

Branch between my Rickenbacker 3001 and my Matamp this PDAL I can fully exploit my sound without dnaturer, we trs trs away from digital and the amp simulation, here was "his" sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I use the pedals from its prmices as a beta tester, even when I test a lot of products parralle DIFFERENT but I can not help myself dfaire .
Report irrprochable quality since we are facing a high-end product in a range of ultra COMPTITE rate.
I would do without this choice and look forward hsiter other brand products (which I beta tested ausi) out.

There's the look that makes you want to overdrive it a try. Vintage look with aged copper appearance (each finish is also unique which makes the subject more enjoyable). Even if it comes in a velvet hair, the look is strong and robust, has no time there is no doubt of the design. In short we have not been afraid to carry around in turns and size for the rock.

Just history quibble: 2 dtails: prfr I will have the switch over in the "central part" of history avoid that the foot is half in a vacuum when it triggers. That said, the party against drgler no risk of the knobs when it triggers (which often happens with my Rat), so it can be just as well.
Deuximement even if the connector meets the standard (the right input, output left), a registration ca t would not have too much for the heads up like me!

UTILIZATION

3 knobs (gain, prsence, volume), but really effective, it's what I like and expect from this type of product.
The LED (green) state of on / off, is powerful enough to be on scne despite different lighting.

Then not need to be Nobel Prize lean on the button -> it works!

SOUND QUALITY

Having shared many times with scne Nico (designer of the pedals) and his group Superbeatnik, I knew that the same ide dfendait the bass sound and the contribution of an overdrive! The priority does not sound dnaturer low torque / amp.
No wonder we find this particular feature in this product.

Before trying the Mazzetti, my silent setup: fender precision 50s reedition Southwestern, boss sd1 configured boost (gain lightweight, volume background), a rat (traditional) branch with a constant gain lightweight, Gallien Kruger 400rb head + 2x15 cabinet mesa boogie diesel. "

Even if the silent sd1 which suited me best for what I tried I did not shut completely satisfied. I was losing too much frequency drives low and it tended to overwrite the sound if I went too the volume knob. With Mazzetti, no more problem. The quilibrage is not changed when I started, it swells lgrement sound thanks to its added grain and the volume gain is much more important than ever and without sd1 s' Cras (To compare I get the same gain with the volume knob a half on the Mazzetti with the volume turned on sd1)

Grain intake is really good, close to what can be a tube amp that starts to grow well, its not "chemical". But beware the sound palette is not huge. It's not the kind of pedals that offer aseptic 36,000 types of overdrive all means, it does not CAF. Here we have a grain, a unique personality, but characters and quality.

The button will take prsence lgrement Tone up on mid / high and thus adapt to the place where you play (and the acoustics of the pice)

OVERALL OPINION

In the end really glad I tried this pedals. No need for 3 hours to see if it fits or not. It possde one type of sound: The sound rock bass, but does it with perfection!

Effect made by a musician for musicians! No wonder that all who try it are satisfied!

A search for Low distortion dune and APRS several tests inconclusive Nico Mazzetti my prt one of his pedals for a scale test RPET in on my stuff: US JazzBass Pte, T you amp Trace Elliot AH 150-7 Ampeg cab and BT25.

UTILIZATION

Hands: the Look pedals that would pass without a problem casting for MadMax 2. Mtal case, Potentiomtres of robust quality button, I think quon can jump both feet above the dog run for the quil reported, chock furniture, rocking on the cops for a demo , etc ... The case is relatively strong for many uses.

SOUND QUALITY

In condition I connect and nothing .. Jai branch upside down.

I sense and reconnects in lautre forward Gingham!

3 rglages MIX Prsence and Over Drive, tampering After a few my conclusion is:

A far cry from their part to boost pedals you gain to lure you in or are you drooling Dcibel simulate a major brand amp sound by digging with a chisel, the pedals and my gear is Fidler the sound of each of my lments especially the grain of the couple that Ampeg Trace Elliot jaffectionne particulirement.
Cest end cest trs same end grain of Latakia lover drive meets Fidler notes cheeks. The sound is what makes lgrement boost to a good potato without ESG when lenlve. The rglages are simple and well penss, no frills.

OVERALL OPINION

Simple, effective and high-end one like jen.

A prciser: Record oral

We are talking about the overdrive pedal home Mazzetti, franais product (for once) makes Montpellier in the south, fully Fawn craft, by hand, therefore, the printed circuit until the finish of the case through its beautiful velvet case in which this effect is livr.Cet overdrive is fully analog and possde an input and output, normal What ...

UTILIZATION

The dashboard so to speak, is simply simplicime, fine, no textbook will be remis.a obvious, it's a pedal dpouille, no need to fumble for long hours find the sound, lean and has rings and that's the principal.L overdrive consists of three pots, a gain, a Presence, which replaces the outline, and a gain volume.Le make you move from a subtle crunch has a more velvety crme Paisse allowing "croum-croum" the dynamics of the game is still respected and it is especially hot and without the presence of his cot lampes.La allowing adjustment end between a sound with more bass, a bit slimy and something brighter to its extreme, this remains a presence here so the pedal does not alter the original sound of the instrument or amp, which lacks a a lot of great effects marque.Pour finish plays the role of volume boost when it exceeds half of the race and the knob dcoiffe a blow to your drummer and makes him close his gueule.Encore Once an effect is very easy to use, it is to rock and get into it without any fuss, the authentic sound, much more than gadjet this pedal is a must.

SOUND QUALITY

I use my Telecaster Thinline Mazzetti on a couple dear and tender Sunn Model T, the loop is a loop, like a cherry on the cake, the pedal embellishes this soft and pretty and makes collaboration more efficient than ever and I repeat, respects the original sound of a guitar plugged into a amp.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two weeks and only regrets not having made that choice more tot.C is just by chance what has ended up under my foot, because a friend had below the elbow (fun camaraderie ... ), then I used a Boss DS 1 has my taste did not sound too bad but too often wrong with my ears "fffffffffff, zzzzzzzzz, buzzzzzz" too artificiel.Hormis trs attractive price of Mazzetti and sound of quality that seems obvious (why no one thought of before) it has a vintage look destroy the charm (trs certe fashion) makes us wonder if she did not was found on a beach Normandy, abandoned by a mad scientist, hirsute, Exhaust World War II ... in short it has everything a large.

A simple overdrive: 3 pots, switch and loupiotte.
A socket for power supply industry will appreciate well.

UTILIZATION

Use: you plug it sounds.

SOUND QUALITY

What is great with this pedal is that it respects the sound of the instrument and the amp.
The presence knob can resort to the treble or mellowifier the guitar.
I looked for when the overdrive channel of my amp saturated showed signs of weakness, I have tried several Mazzetti and conquered me.
I used a rat before and since I Mazette the Rat parrait me cold and tasteless.

She potato to spare. I use the volume knob to 1 / 4 and that's enough.
The range of gain is sufficiently large.
The buttons are very responsive.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
For 6 months

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
Not all, but I have tried many (rat, boss, dod, Danelectro ...) She pushes all.

How would you rate the quality / price?
Very good considering it as the craftsmanship in design and in implementation. Craftsmanship and very, very well done.
finishes are impeccable. The effect of rust box is very nice.

With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Without hesitation. Moreover, the fuzz Mazette tempts me well ...

Mazzetti Congratulations!

The job to love the pedal, no need to hold forth, it feels the first connection to Jack.
That the component quality, nothing wrong with the faction.
I use it in PAYDAY ( www.myspace.com / paydayfever ( http://www.myspace.com/paydayfever ) ), listening to live with SG and HIWATT Custom 100.

UTILIZATION

Intuitive, 3 pots enough.

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?
The overdrive is the most natural I've met so far.
The sound of the guitar and amp are in no way altered the dynamics is respected,
on a Hiwatt Custom 100, it does not forgive!

OVERALL OPINION

For how long have you been using it?
Not far from one year

Characteristic you love most, the least?
No downside to this pedal that meets expectations in every way that we can have an overdrive.
It has color, but respects the audio spectrum, does not lose any bass, and for overdrive, this is rare.
The grain is snarling at will, and the pots do not really serve anything.
Knob gain a very progressive, a very effective presence that I set myself around a quarter,
and a master that I try not to exceed half, otherwise the other pedals I use seem
tiny!
Used alone, gain and master thoroughly, it's just the ultimate weapon!

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
Rat, TS9 (old and recent) BOSS OD1, Coron .. it buries them all!

Value for money?
Can anyone do better?
Less expensive than any pedal worthy of the name .. there is no comparison.

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
Obviously!

Classic Overdrive pedal in its operation: 3 knobs (volume, presence, gain) operating nickel, to adjust the degree of gain (graouh!), volume and height desired (useful for power accommodates the acoustics of the place). There's little hole right there for his branch beam, another left poury connect its amplifier. Until the will is? When the pedal is plugged in a small green LED handy (and Zouli) lights. The botierdestroy b and is robust. Must dvisser plate below (4 screws) to reach pile.Le everything is analog, hand made by Nico in southern France.
One single BMOL poor, making 9-volt power plug on the network does not work on my pedal. But Nico rpondu me very quickly and nicely. It is I who have not yet had time to look over a prs. The after-sales service is exceptional. In addition it is simple and sounds. What you ask for?

UTILIZATION

So the setup is a breeze. Find the sound is simple since there is no fiddling knobs 15. The food does not pedal the sound of the amp as does a boss ODB-3. If the amp is a follows rgl perfectly. It RULES gain level is adjusted by the volume ratio and adjusts the amplifier's overall presence in the mix. And rings. And you're happy.

SOUND QUALITY

Aaaaahhh ... the sound quality. The first point is that the pedal importantissime Chow does not sound from your amp. So it prfrable use with a quality amp I think.
I play Stoner therefore I must sound very fat roots and presents. My configuration is:
Korg Tuner - Mazzetti Lowerdrive - Tech 21 Sansamp - Boss Noise reductor - Asdown ABM ABM 500 RC with 4 * 10 * 15 and 1.
The Sansamp serves me win on offense (this is not the highlight of the ABM 500) but the overdrive does not suit me, it is fast too noisy and rough. So I want a sound that respects Overdrive Torque SansAmp / ABM 500 and my bass (a Rickenbacker 4000 and an Epiphone Thunderbird Completely customizes). And the magic, I douvert by chance that matched what Lowerdrive sought, and this after you tried several brands (Electro-Harmonix not evil Boss Yuck!; Digitech Hmm ...). It is in the very high end prices comptitive. The sound is subtle and specific on, never muddy ... and super fat. Gnial.

OVERALL OPINION

I for 1 month or 2. I tried to pedal full month before. This became the cornerstone of my rig. My amps are likely to change during one of my moods but is Lowerdrive indboulonnable. The report price is amazing quality. I would do this choice the closed eyes.
