Anyone here give one a test run yet? It seems everyone says something slightly different about it... I've heard everything from a much better DS-1 to a Rat to a Hot Rodded Marshall.

Re: MXR Badass 78 Impressions?
I still have mine, but it's not in front of my amp right now. Results depend on your amp, I guess. I like it all right in front of my Princeton, less so in front of my Blues Jr. Awesome with my Class 5, just sonic icing on an already great cake.
Very classic sound. "The Boys are Back in Town. "Waiting on the Bus." "Back in Black." Etc.Last edited by Inkstained; 10-26-2012, 12:11 PM.

Re: MXR Badass 78 Impressions?
I have one. I got it since from the MXR demos they managed to make it sound like, and alluded it to being an EVH in a box pedal.
I got it, it wasn't. Doesn't really get the GNR tone they claim in the manual either.
Eventually I got the EVH 5150 III to get the tone I was looking for.

However, it IS a very powerful pedal, it has a large output boost, is very raw sounding like a chainsaw. I just don't have a need for dirt boxes after getting my 5150 III amp
