Amazing!

This pedal is the real deal! You'll have to reconfigure your rig and even adapt your playing style to make this pedal work for you in most cases. But once you crack the code, you'll know what being "experienced" feel like!

Overall Great Fuzz

Must have pedal for the classic Jimi Hendrix fuzz tones. Can't have any pedal with a buffer in front of it. Since the Vox V847 wah is true-bypass, I can place this fuzz after the wah
