(More customer reviews)Amazingly, this has some of the same parts as the famed Tube Screamer, including the JRC4558 opamp. But it is a distortion pedal, so the sound clips differently, and has much more gain on tap.
The sounds you can get from this pedal can vary. In low to medium gain levels, you can get classic overdrive crunch, and 70's style Marshall distortions. In higher levels, you can get 80's hard rock tones, and even some fuzz-like textures. It has plenty of sustain on its own, and compared to a stock Boss DS-1, has more of a tube amp's dynamics. That is, you can set the gain just about anywhere, and use your guitar's volume knob to get different levels of crunch, or even a cleaner tone. It does respond well to a booster or overdrive pedal, but by that point, I'd rather use a higher gain pedal, like a Metal Zone. It's also great for boosting a Marshall JCM 800 to get the classic death metal tone favored by bands like Obituary, and Morbid Angel.
If you're looking for a distortion pedal to use for various gigs, I'd recommend this one.
