Members Telemike2 Posted May 1, 2014 Members Share Posted May 1, 2014 Picked up a couple pedals off Donnerdeal. These shipped 2 day USPS from their TN warehouse. Donner Blues Drive. Supposedly a repackaged Mooer Green Mile. Has a TS style sound. Don't care much for the Hot boost mode. The Warm mode is the traditional TS style tone. Came in a very nice case with magnetic latch. $37 ENO (http://www.ex-amp.com) DSO-2 Trouble overdrive. An OCD style clone. I like this one a lot. It's what my Peavey Classic 30's gain channel should sound like. Nice thick crunchy tones. $32 on sale, back up to $55 now. I like the LP mode best.

Phil O'Keefe Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 How does everything feel on those? Are the knobs flimsy and wobbly? How does the general fit and finish look? I'm kind of surprised they don't have a tremolo in the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Telemike2 Posted May 2, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 2, 2014 Knobs are not flimsy or wobbly. Footswitches feel good. I popped the back cover off and the footswitch is on it's own PCB. The main PCB I did not try and take out to see the circuit. I'd have to remove the knob and take off the nuts for the jacks. In/out jacks are PCB mounted but do use metal nuts on the case. I figured for the money it was worth the risk to try these. So far I am satisfied. I am a home player so these won't get knocked around. The tiny black controls are hard to see when adjusting, I would suggest painting the arrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Telemike2 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 I did not bond with the Donner Blues Drive. Flipped it on eBay for a loss . Though not much of a loss since I bought the ENO pedal on sale for $32 and now it is at $55. The ENO OCD clone is kicking my Lumpy's Liquid Lead to eBay too. It has a nice fat bottom end and I just love the crunch tones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ancient Mariner Posted May 8, 2014 Members Share Posted May 8, 2014 The Eno OCD type is good, isn't it. I really like the Eno ES9 - TS9 clone too for the way it interacts with single coils, crunchy at the bottom of the neck, singing at the top.
