Review: Ground Control Audio Tsukuyomi & Amaterasu

guitar.com

These Canadian-made boost pedals combine stylish design with solid performance, but they aren't without quirks. The Tsukuyomi is praised for its transparent boost and effective midrange kick, making it versatile for different tones. Conversely, the Amaterasu excels in full-frequency mode but can be overly aggressive with its treble boost, potentially overwhelming for some setups. While both pedals deliver quality sound, the Tsukuyomi edges out as the more user-friendly option, leaving players to contemplate if the Amaterasu’s piercing treble is worth the trade-off. Ultimately, they offer decent value but may not suit every player's needs.
