Looks fantastic at the campfire, sounds good. Lots of punch and snarky mids.
Neck feels smooth, body a bit plastic-ish, but for that money, it’s very reasonable.
I love not having to be stressed too much about taking it outside, into harsh conditions - it’s my campfire on the beach guitar. Scratches, bumps, bucklerash? It’s okay on this guitar - call it ‘character’.
Bought with that in mind, it sounds far better than average.

It’s super clean.. in all its raunchyness.
Absolute killer-tones.
The first 10 seconds I used this pedal, it became clear to me I would (will) never have to buy a(n expensive) plexi amp.
This pedal is all you need.
This reverb doesn’t force-feed you its own identity or idea of what reverb should sound like. It simply puts your sound in an ambience.
