Best value: Correct
I do not m'tends: clne TS (I never test a real vintage), gain, volume, bass and trebble for equal.
Handmade, made in USA, suddenly we pay a high price. 9v power supply standard, I use it on pedalboard. Format "single" from Xotic has released more than BBs, Ac Also, larger format ... Little space in any case a Pedalboard, but what sound presence!

UTILIZATION

No manual, no need. One branch and one is playing. Each volume pot is extremely dynamic. So it was a real change in sonority according rglages. J uses it a lot as the EQ section, and walk very well as a clear boost.

SOUND QUALITY

One of the best pedals in my opinion. It can be used as a boost with gain 0. THE EQUAL is very effective. Then you go up the gain and crunch very quickly (this is the most pronounced of Xotic "single" in terms of saturation), to go up a good saturation. Let's be clear, do not drool that is always clean, and warm: there are really grain Robben Ford or Eric Johnson, Larry Carlton. C may also sound more "hendrix" with adequate share rglages (bass and trebble 3h) I use it with an RC booster (when you love Xotic you do not count) upstream, it is pure Happiness! For specific on, I played on a Mesa Boogie DC-2, very hot blues, crmeux, and the BB sounds close to the saturated channel of this amp. on the other hand, if you push the volume and more gain, you get a much more "Zeppelin-ien" ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for many years. I had sold a few months ago to finance a more versatile preamp, and I'm back two month after. I compared the AC Booster and too kind as his medium, I have not liked. Issue price, that is expensive, but worth it.
Yes I redid this choice ahahah.
Note: I did not test the BB Plus, it seems that it does not sound exactly the same.
