I read about a million times in forums that someone tried this pedal on a whim and they love it. Its only $40 so I final decided to give it a try. Its not just the praise it has received but more the way it was describe and what it reportedly did. I found as other did it actual did pretty much what digitech claimed. I am completely on the band wagon now I really like this pedal. It is not just a matter of price either. It would be a good piece of gear at double the price. It is not amazing it is just an overdrive pedal. And a subtler one at that. It not over the top sound of a tube amp melting down but a some nice lower gain overdriven tube sound. Great for adding some nice tube amp hair when you have to play at low volumes(stupid neighbors) or to add that sound to a solid state. The high and low control really make this pedal excel. They real help you shape your tone to suit your needs. Its nice it is not trying to be a tube screamer clone with a some added bells and whistles or a swiss army knife does everything pedal. And it is not some expensive boutique pedal with some “magic” nos chip. It just does what it is supposed to…well. I had preconceived notions about digitech. I never imagined I would buy a pedal from them when I thought of them modeling metal pedals came to mind first. Something I don’t really like. Shows what preconceived notions are worth.
