Best value: Excellent
overdrive

level
tone
gain
a switch that does not plop. trs pleasant

a big red led many visionary behind the knob.

the pedal is solid and there is a door under the pedal to the battery.

apparently the pedal is a dot buffer.

UTILIZATION

is simple ...

SOUND QUALITY

in sound, it's a good overdrive so it will not rev far, gain level I would say that it is a bit more than a tube screamer lev. in sound we are in the same spirit, a mellow overdrive, trs bluesy with a cot a little tight cras as TS but less pronounced nonetheless. the highs are not tinny and the medium are less pronounced lair and I was better defined, especially with the gain pushed. It sounds thick, fat, thick, soft, quite dark and muddy.
Tone knob of I is quite strange, on my gear (and telecaster vox ac4) must pass the 3 / 4 of the race of the Tone knob so that the sound is not too dark. this may be due to my config.

the sound may be more ar and a little less compressed but good all the same

OVERALL OPINION

The report price is good quality. for a little less than 100euros we have the right to pay the same low quality as its big sisters of the same brand that cost two times more

for the person seeking an overdrive clear, sharp, transparent, modern or something, go your way.

for he who seeks an OD soft, thick, muddy with its more oriented for the blues, it would greatly please you.

departing I was not convinced by this OD, I put up for sale 2h APRS have reu. (I prefer the clear OD)

but finally I got it attach a sacred charm.

PS: the volume of the pedal really needs to be poss to ring. like a tube amp, except it is not <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_lol.gif" alt="" /> So to play a small volume in his room are best avoided. there are pedals that sound good trs a low volume, but this is the case of the aps the
