Cool stomp: BBE Crusher Distortion

[Closed Eye]

If you guys ever get the chance try out one of these:

I plugged one in today through an American Standard Telecaster into a Fender Hot Rod Deville on the clean channel. Let me tell you, this baby rocks! It's not very METAL, as the three band EQ and name would have you believe, but has more of an early Mesa/hot rodded or modern Marshall character. I have a Traynor YCV50Blue, but I'm thinking of switching to a clean 1970s Fender Vibro Champ or Fender Reverb with this as my main distortion!

The pedal is amazingly articulate, has incredibly amp like dynamics, and impressed the hell outta me for a mass production pedal. Check it out!

Distortion/OD pedals with a full eq always get my attention. Would it you say it had a bright tone to it or was it on the dark side?

The MKII looks awesome! I gotta check that out too.

I'm gonna say it a little darker than most distortions. But that was something I was definitely able to work around with the EQ, which again, was VERY responsive. It's got a great bass boost as well, just kicks up the signal!

What do you use for your ODs/Distortions?
