Critic Reviews

ToadWorks Lil’ Leo and John Bull | Vintage Guitar® magazine

vintageguitar.com

Toadworks John Bull delivers some intriguing British overdrive tones, particularly with the right amp, but can be frustrating to dial in. While the Lil' Leo excels with a vintage Fender vibe, the John Bull's gain can come off as overly fuzzy without precise adjustments. Both pedals boast quality craftsmanship, yet the inconsistent response with different setups may leave some players wanting more. Great for those who enjoy a challenge, but not the most user-friendly option on the market.
