My always-on
I'm basically using this as a preamp. The only things before it in my chain are my noise gate and compressor. It's reportedly the same circuit as the Vertex Steel String, itself an attempt to replicate the tones of the Dumble Steel String Singer. It's a nice crisp, transparent sound and almost certainly the least expensive good-sounding Dumble-style pedal. Mine stays on at virtually all times. Sounds great into my other ODs when I want some grit–I recommend the TS Mini and the EXH Satisfaction as fun pairings with this pedal

Insane value, beautiful sound
I would still love this guitar if it cost six instead of four. Beautiful looking, great feeling, sounds just like you want a hollowbody to sound. Being less expensive, quality control can be variable but mine was actually really nicely set up when I got it. Unplugged tone is warm and clear with more bottom end sustain than I expected from a linden body. Tuners are clunky but stay in tune and at this price point I'm calling that a win. Finish has a pleasant feel to it, mostly feels like regular medium-coursely sanded wood which adds to the "grabdpappy's attic guitar" vibes.

Solid beginner amp
Great little amp for the price. Not really right for my style and goals but it got me through until I could try enough amps to know what I wanted. Definitely worthy for beginners and those looking for a really good quality to cost ratio.
