Raspy nasty vintage 60s fuzz tones from a faithful recreation of the Tonebender fuzz pedal.
The boost adds something - space on a pedalboard. A genius idea to add an in-built boost to a tuner, which everyone needs and has anyway, just a great idea plus sounds really good too.
Bringing any standard wah up to the specs of a Real McCoy with vintage tones and sweep.
Unique sounding versatile germanium based distortion/fuzz ranging from cool overdrive to all out war.
Goes from a typical Fuzzface type fuzz to full on super-compressed 60s style or rll back and increase threshld to have a super-gated fuzz. Amazingly versatile.
Superb Op-Amp Big Muff clone with excellent tone control and tons of sustain/gain. Super loud and aggressive even at lower gain settings. Not fr the faint-hearted.
Great sounding pedal the only negative is the enclosure.
Mine is late 80s but even today sounds awesome. Great unit.
Pushes vibrato at the highest rate setting with regen on full. The other sounds range from chorus to jet-plane. Just superb.
Great copy of a Tubescreamer which is surprising at such a low price-point. The build is solid and the sound is accurate. Simply put a good pedal to have.

Amplifiers 2

Doesn't really need the high-gain channel imo, the clean sound is great, and the overdrive option is fine for a mid-rangey blues type sound. The reverb is adequate and the controls allow tweaking to some degree. Great gigging amp.

Other Gear 1

Great sounding unit solidly built switches from overdrive to fuzz with added octave up, very versatile and a great buy.
