Critic Reviews

KMise "Crunch" Distortion Pedal ~ Luthiery Laboratories

luthierylabs.com

The KMise Crunch Distortion pedal delivers a solid performance for its low price, catering best to metal enthusiasts with its raucous sound. While it's praised for its compact design and true bypass feature, the pedal's plastic pot shafts raise concerns about durability. Additionally, the mislabeling of the "Gain" and "Volume" knobs can lead to confusion, though this can be easily remedied. Overall, for just twenty bucks, it’s a worthy addition for budget-conscious players, but those seeking more nuanced distortion might want to look elsewhere.
