I was searching for a good solid overdrive pedal that would act like an amp, and something that would sound something like a classic marshall. I was bored of buying cheap pedals and finding the right tone, so I thought that I would invest in a expensive pedal that could last me forever and my days with buying pedals would be over. I was searching in forums, reading reviews, watching videos for a long time like half a year to find the right pedal (we don't have many pedals that I can try at my local store). There was almost non bad review about this pedal that i could find.
I was convinced that this is a pedal for me.
So I got it, and ''voala'' I didn't like it. It looks cool, everything is sturdy and the quality is very good especially the switch, but the sound...It is really compressed, that makes it not hear chord rhythm when you play, it doesn't have that cool crunch, in the band you really don't hear the details. I think it lacks a little bit of the low end, and there is this one ear piercing frequency and with one tone knob i can't solve these issues. It really don't have that full punchy marshally sound, it feels a bit transperent.
I gave it a time to so I can play around with it.
I am not saying that the pedal is bad, but for the 200 euros I really waited for something that would send me shivers down my spine. I like the way it sustains and fades away. I mainly use it with a low gain setting cause than I can still hear the the details.
For my main OD pedal I use Marshall jackhammer, for me it works much better and is much cheaper and more versatile.
If you have the money buy it, just saying that there is cheaper quality pedals too.
