Class A tube pedal by Bad Cat...'nough said...
UTILIZATION
Channel 1 – Here you get clean to crunch (think Plexi). The basic sound is quite aggressive, hard and contains a lot of added highs.
Channel 2 – In channel 2 you get endless tube gain. This suits almost any guitar and produces a nice, singing lead sound.
SOUNDS
...in my opinion this Pedal only sounds really good when played over a Vox or a Badcat amp – amps with a lot of mid range so to speak. If you play it through a Fender or Marshall amp this pedal just sounds too harsh. It also has a lot of output – this can be an advantage as much as a disadvantage.
OVERALL OPINION
The construction of this pedal is of course flawless (or should I say matchless...). Very clean manufacturing, perfect positioning of the components…surely built to last the next 200 years…
