Connected Blackstar HT5 head and Bugera 4x12

ISF of the head on the side Rican typed mesa.

Tested side Roast typed Marshall is not bad but too heavy for me 80's

On the version that I have no accommodation for a 9V battery, so transformer required. I wish I had a choice.

UTILIZATION

Easy to set in 10 minutes I had the sound I wanted

SOUNDS

we can do a lot of style, but it is in the metal it hard all the time.
Very quiet, not breathing is reasonable if the gain and volume (max 14h)
The sound is very accurate, very high definition, difficult to draft or honeycomb. Is the anti-metal box that side.
This pedal is made for us metalheads and just for us. No versatility has two bullets.

OVERALL OPINION

after 1 month of use, at home and repeating.
For me the top of distos, it has replaced my Blackstar HT-Dual (very good pedal too, but too much go anywhere for me).
Sound crazy Body and the switch that sends more.

It's an upscale distortion pedal, Made in France, relatively large, no lights (and yet what a sound!), Delivered with its transformer.

UTILIZATION

The pedal steel seems as solid as a tank, the finish is neat.
Configuaration is the basic, the knobs are extremely reactive, so we get accurate settings without pb.
There is no user's guide, but is it really necessary to set a distortion pedal?

SOUNDS

the sound ... It rocks big time! This pedal allows through its fine tuning and the famous sweep buttons to switch between the metal type (mmm so so, I don't like it) to a very big Big Rock type sound (oh yes! I like it), or even almost just Vintage type Overdrive.
Headroom and volume is impressive, the pedal can either be plugged into the preamp effects loop or in the front input. In my case, my old JMP has no effects loop so I can only speak of using the front input, I play a Gibson Les Paul Studio and a Marshall JMP Combo 2104 (50W 2X12) I am using the NOS BOX to add a sort of channel Highgain to my JMP, the pedal preserves the tone of the amp and you get it to sound supercharged à la Soldano and the sound is great!! not a breath even with the gain pushed at eleven! The "body" Switch allows to add thickness and harmonics, it's so nice that you can't do without and in my case it is switched on permanently!

OVERALL OPINION

Used since few months, for me it is really the holy grail of distortion pedals, my quest for the ultimate pedal stops with the NOSBOX!
I tried a multitude of distortion pedals with tubes / no tubes / etc, I kept some and I've sold a lot, but the NOSBOX really comes on top of the basket and thus gains a permanent place in my pedalboard.
The minus is the price, 250E for a preamp / distortion pedal it is expensive but considering the quality I do not regret it, for the 15 years I have played the guitar I had really never seen such great quality in a distortion pedal !
When a manufacturer manufactures pedals of this quality, do not deprive yourself. Finally, it is said that the sound is even better and bigger by going directly into the effects loop ...
