Critic Reviews

ZVEX Super-Duper 2-in-1 Boost Pedal Review | Guitar Jar

guitarjar.co.uk

The Z.Vex Super Duper 2-in-1 offers a powerful boost with its dual-channel setup, making it effective for pushing amp valves for that classic rock sound. Its ease of use and handmade reliability are notable highlights. However, caution is advised—cranking the volume can lead to potential damage to your equipment if not handled properly. While channel 1 delivers clarity, channel 2 can create a muddier tone when pushed hard. For those who crave versatility in their tone manipulation, this pedal shines, but it may be overkill for players who prefer a simpler setup. Overall, a solid choice for those looking to enhance their sound, with a few quirks to keep in mind.

"In Ampere I've sometimes used light overdrive pedals, and have realized that I'm more after a clean boost pedal, or again something that can bring out the sparkle or treble of the guitar tone. Lately I've been using an M.I. Audio Boost n' Buff pedal, just as a buffer (pedal turned off, but still having a high input impedance), which works to draw more of the treble and percussive sound of the guitar out of it. The Z Vex Super Duper 2-in-1 is a similar sort of pedal that I also like and have used."
