Great pedal, and one of the very best companies I've ever used.

I had my Octron for several years and the pots started going bad. Knowing they have a lifetime (Dave's the owner I assume) warrantee I contacted him, sent it back and now it's good as new again. He put it in a new box, send some stickers, pics, outstanding service.

Anyway, this can send a boosted (or cut) direct signal. I occasionally just use it as a boost. Then it does the upper octave Hendrix thing. You can blend the upper and direct together and/or add bottom to it. You can use this to do bass lines, searing upper octaves or simply as a boost pedal. The fun of course is trying to do all 3 at once.

This thing is all analog, when you compare it side by side to most of the digital units it's apparent the tracking on this is outstanding and so is the tone.
