Finally got one of these pedals after many years. I don't play blues, and don't stack ODs...but wanted to try it as a boost for high gain metal tones. I set my JVMs crunch channel to have a stiff, crunchy 800 sound when doing this.
What I like most about it is that it doesn't fu¢k with my mids. It also gives/retains the tubelike feel and attack.
With the tone dial set below half, it adds a nice edge that's not sizzly or buzzy and it retains my amp's thump with minimal bass cut. Not too much coloration overall. A good alternative to my SD-2 and OCD. All three of which are different from each other in this application.
I half knew what to expect, being around and playing with players who used one, but I'm glad to now have it in the tool box as an tonal option.
