Way Huge Electronics Red Llama Overdrive is a somewhat rare overdrive pedal designed for use with electric guitar. While it is certainly suitable for use with any electronic instrument, I've only used with electric guitar. The pedal is pretty standard as far as its characteristics go, as it has 1/4" connections and a jack for a nine volt power supply. It isn't a rack mountable piece of gear as it is a stomp box.
UTILIZATION
There aren't too many pedals out there that are easier to use than the Way Huge Electronics Red Llama Overdrive. Users on all levels should be able to understand the basic make up found here as the pedal simply has parameters for volume and drive, with no other parameters to work with in the mix. There isn't too much more to say about using the pedal, except that I don't think you need a manual at all with this pedal.
SOUND QUALITY
The Way Huge Electronics Red Llama Overdrive has an overall really cool sound. I can't think of any pedals that I could compare it to, as the Red Llama Overdrive is literally an animal of its own. I've used the pedal with a Fender Jazzmaster and a '76 Fender Twin Reverb for a recording session, and was very pleased with the outcome. The pedal is great for giving you a subtle overdrive boost, but it can also crank as well to give you some nice fuzz. It isn't the most versatile pedal considering the small amount of parameters, but this doesn't bother me at all because the sounds that it does get are top notch.
OVERALL OPINION
Beyond the one that I used, the Way Huge Electronics Red Llama Overdrive pedal seems to be pretty rare. I haven't seen any others out there, and I don't personally own one. However, it was a great pedal to have around in the studio as it helped to achieve the sound I was looking for on this particular recording session. I don't really know anything about the price or anything like that, but regardless of it, this is a very cool pedal worth investigating into if you're looking for an off brand overdrive pedal.
