Great clean channel, take pedals fine. Dive channel isn't very good at all. Reverb is of course the best you will find on the market. Very Versatile.

With two speakers it's still fills the room. Haven't had any experience with a 2 by 12 cabinets, but it has a very top end sound and still supports low end very well.

Has classic fender cleans, therefore takes pedals like a dream. I wish so much the 60 head has reverb like the 100 Head. Drive channel isn't great, needs to be cranked to get something plausible out of it.

Great pedal overall. Obviously very wobbly at times when set to upper or lower octave, but this is expected for the time it was built. The reason the pedal has been rated a 4 is because of the brilliant chorus/ phaser effects. on the de-tune setting you can set a shallow or deep setting (shallow indicating a chorus effect - deep indicating a vibrato esque effect), if you ease off with your foot it then creates a decent phaser effect. Pretty versatile pedal.

You can really carve out certain frequencies. You can either use it as a great treble boost, or add a great low end thump on your tone.

Great long delays or slap-back delays. Really versatile when dialling in as it has many settings.

I have had a short time with this pedal however it has proven to be almost perfect. It brings midrange up very well, along with low end. Over distorts smaller speakers which is frustrating in my position, how ever i have used it with amps with more clean headroom and it sounds brilliant.

Opens up the amp brilliantly, best at high gain levels. Wish it had more of a mid-range bite to it, but still has great tonal qualities with the use of a bass and treble knob. I've found that paired with a fuzz pedal (best at low gain) it creates a very very gated fuzz. Like a ZVEZ fuzz factory vibe, but of course when not touching the strings it wails in feedback. At first it seamed it covered my tone in bass which was find because i love low end, but it did seam to mist up the rest of the tone. I battle this by turning up the treble knob and i mostly blend it with my BOSS EQ pedal by adding a lot of mid-rage and a bit more gain. This pedal was a gift from a friend so maybe my evaluation of it isn't fuelled by how much money i spent, but its a pedal i'll stick with it for a while. I'd fully understand people's discomfort with the absurd amount of bass and we shouldn't have to tweak a pedal that much to get it to a good tonal place...but i like a challenge.

This pedal makes transitions at certain gain stages quite smooth and avoids insane noise when not playing. However the caveat is that it lacks importance on my pedal board, and of course everyones board is different however i hear such little differences when its on and off. Hum-bucker guitars like my Ibanez benefit from this pedal more but I switch it straight off when i go to use a Stratocaster because it sucks out the clarity to be honest. This pedal shines more when i use a whole lot of fuzz but i'm afraid it isn't versatile enough to achieve the multiple sounds i'm hearing. It's cool to use with a whammy set to a lower octave, it kind of stabilises the current as the whammy (or certainly mine) can conjure up some un-wanted wobble. This pedal despite not being too versatile still does its job and does it well at higher volumes and gain stages so this is a damn useful pedal!
