I got this pedal at Guitar Center i paid 40$ for it alone but with a cable it cost 51$ i originally wasnt planing on buying this pedal i was looking at the Grunge but they were sold out, so as i was testing the Hot Head out it seemed perfect for what i play classic rock and metal all that good stuff

It has a level,low,high and gain which are all i really need, it can either run on a 9v battery or a plug in thing i dont know what it called so u can play out of the main power source, comes with a digitech pamphlet on how to use it and another one with all other of their pedals and it shows adjustments on how to get some tones, very convenient |

awesome i would pick it to be more excellent if there was a choice, i caould make my shitty 15w Crate sound like a Marshall full stack with this pedal it give my amp a nice crisp distorted tone that sounds perfect for playing classic rock, it is very versatile i could go from playing Jhonny b Goode, to Mr Crowley, to Master of Puppets, compared to my friends Digitech Death Metal pedal i would chose this one for solos it gives you a nice lead and crunchy tone that sounds like Randy Rhodes(if u set the pedal up right)im in love with my pedal |

it is very good, as far as feedback which it does get but very little, it is was more controled compared to the Digitech Detahmetal pedal that thing gets a shit load of feedback, im saying this a lot of times but i cant get enough of the crips crunchy tone it gives when you turn up the gain, nice controls to give a variety of tones |

ummm im goin to rate the durability at excellent because it is a nice metal frame rubber on the bottom so it wont slip and i would chose this to play at a gig |

in my opinion compared to the Grunge and Death Metal pedals i would chose this one by far, if this one was trashed,blown out(somehow),stolen,run over,bombed, i would definately go out and buy this one again, i got this pedal out of an accident and im glad i got it |
