If they've got 'em, I could snag one for you...

I have two of the green set on GT-OD. I will get two more of the cream, if I can find them, just for the ZW setting on both of my boards.

Thanks for the heads up!!

This is a *great* pedal and I thought it was a steal for $30 last year. I have tried several MXR dirt/OD pedals on my board, but this is the one that cannot be bumped by the others.

I did not even know about the ZW switch inside...

I got mine 2 years ago from my wife as a stocking stuffer. I gave her the heads up that it was on sale for $29.99 and that was a steal....so for $19.99 you'd have to be brain dead to pass that up. The internal switch goes from GT-OD to ZW-OD, it's the best $20 you'll ever spend on a pedal.

I've compared my Classic OD vs the Fulltone OCD v4 and needless to say I sold the OCD and got $125 back in my pocket.

Is this still going on? I'm highly interested.

Good! Heading to GC now to see about picking one up! Probably gonna try to trade my Boss SD-1 for it to see where it gets me.

Pretty much any GC will match any other GCs deals. And yes, I'm quite sure it's on sale across the chain. I work at the Brooklyn store and we have them for 20 as well.

Hmmm. Tempting to pick one up again. I had a green one but sold it along with all my other pedals. Been wanting a SD-1 again though too.

Thanks for the heads up GJ! I saw this and made a detour to my GC to grab one! For $20, it's almost wrong not to!

After taking it apart to get to the switch and A/B'ing the normal side and Zakk Wylde side of the pedal I've come to the conclusion that this is a $20 pedal. Along the lines of the plastic Danalectro pedals. The component quality is poor. And that's disappointing from MXR. The normal side is a little shrill. The other side is ok, at best, at bedroom levels. I haven't tried it at volume yet. The lack of true bypass, or the ability to add true bypass bothers me. I can't see how GC tried to sell these things for $100. Which is why they are $20 now.

They're the sams as the MXR GTOD as well, which is I think $129.99. I think it sounds about as good as most other TS style pedals. I grabbed it for a small jam rig or to take into shady bars lol.

No luck at the one near me.

Just went and picked one up. Took it for a test drive and A/B tested it against my TS9.

There really seemed to be no significant difference between the two. The only thing that differs is that the TS9 has a dab more high mids than the MXR, but other than that, there wasn't much difference.

I would say it's definitely a usable overdrive and a good back-up for me. I own 3 overdrives now. The TS9, the SD-1, and now the MXR GCM66, and so far the TS9 is still my favorite, but the MXR is a close second.
