Review by a visitor on 2.12.2005




i brought it off the internet for $48 new zealand

 
 
  Features  
 
It only has two knobs too fiddle with and i like to fiddle so i guess it could have a larger amount of things to turn.
but for only two knobs they make a pretty good sound
 
 
 
  Playability  
 
even a mokey with his legs decapitated could operate it. you just turn knobs and stand on the button
 
 
 
  Quality  
 
I havent really played on much other overdrive/distortion pedals but i have used a boss mt-2 which is very hard to beat. the mt-2 had more knobs to turn but it was more of a metal pedal so i cant really compare the sound but the quality is alright.
 
 
 
  Durability  
 
Its made of plasticy stuff so if you jump round on stage with massive army boots it may break but it is pretty sturdy. also because its plastic it dosent scratch very easy
 
 
 
  Overall  
 
i purchased this overdrive pedal and like it BUT its more like a old school distortion pedal not overdrive. you can get some alright sounds out of it and it was cheap but its made of plastic! i would recommened this for any one looking for a retro distortion pedal for a cheap price. i wouldnnullt advise it for people who wear heavy army boots while jumpind round because its made of plastic! it dose only have two little knobs for level and overdrive and theyre so small you can barely see them. i must say though it looks pretty cool and i heard kurt kobain from nirvana used this exact model for some of his songs and if its good enough for him, its good enough for me!

I bought this pedal at a local guitar shop for about $30

 
 
  Features  
 
This pedal has two different adjustment knobs, one for overdrive, and one for level. It also of course, has the button to turn it off. Itnulls very well laid out, and itnulls small size is nice.
 
 
 
  Playability  
 
I believe that this pedal has great sound, and for itnulls price you cannullt beat it. It does everything Inullve wanted it to.
 
 
 
  Quality  
 
This pedal has great sound. It definitely lives up to my expectations, and surpasses them. It performs just as well as other pedals Inullve tried that are far more expensive
 
 
 
  Durability  
 
This pedal does not need adjusting at all. It works well and I have used it in multiple gigs and have never been dissapointed.
 
 
 
  Overall  
 
I chose this item based on price, and I was not dissapointed at all. I would suggest this for any guitarist.
