"Clean Amp Owners... Look No Further!!!"
This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
You owe it to yourself to try this killer out! Especially if you've got a nice, loud, clean (tube preferably) amp to push with it. I seriously can't possibly say enough about it!
Sound
My only question is why would I buy an extremely expensive boutique amp when all I'll ever need is my '65 reissue Blackface Twin and the Jeckyl and Hyde. In the "red" mode, With the gain at about 11:00 it's reminescent of a hot rodded Soldano, Cornford (that might be stretching it just a little), or Marshall stack. With all the clean headroom balls if the Twin (about a grand), and the perfect overdrive of this pedal (around a buck and a half), it's like a third of the price... Not to mention all the other tonal possibilities with the effect mixture factor! This pedal puts me in that creative comfort zone (where you feel like you wanna play for days)...It doesn't seem to matter what guitar is in front of it, my main fiddle is a U.S. Masters Lacewood Vector with a Gibson '57 Classic Plus at the bridge, a Bill Lawrence custom Keystone at the neck, and a Duncan Little'59 in the middle.... Eddie VH, it's in there... Warren Haynes, it's in there... Gary Moore, it's in there... Listen to Johhny Hiland's new C.D..You get the picture! From articulate to creamy, and many sweet combos of both... THIS THING SNORTS!

Solid as a rock! I'll be gigging with this new found friend for a long time I'm sure. At such a killer price, I'm planning on buying another one (just because..). A true ace-in-the-hole effect.

Read the above testimonials, and that should say it all!
