Nice pedal
I really like this pedal because it gives the guitar a funky distortion and theirs no nobs so just one setting and it sounds brilliant.
Simple but effective
Super simple due to knobs but extremely versatile, best before dirt pedals near octave effects.
Expensive
It's expensive for something that's basically a dan armstrong green ringer mod with a 15 dollar circuit, but I like the design and it does what it's supposed to properly
Very usable
The octave becomes more apparent when you play higher notes or especially 12th fret or higher. This means you're able to play chords still and not have to turn it off to go from rhythm to lead. Now if you hit a chord hard you can hear it almost break up and do some cool, almost synth sounding stuff. Two note chords sound great with this especially root note and 4th together and do some tight percussive riffs. Naturally it's not a clean octave but that's the cool factor about it. I run it before my Fuzz Face and they are a match made in heaven.
Love this pedal.
