is good but could be better..

I bought this pedal because I need to boost my overdrive or a clean with more overdrive...

It is a good pedal however I prefer my OD3 or od2r.

I wish for a double of od2r and OD3.

Great Pedal

The Double Trouble is two Tube Screamers in one casing. Plenty of gain (I have one side set to treble boosting lead channel) and sidles up to a big muff nicely. Modelled after the TS-9, it was good enough to retire my TS-10 from the board.
