I agree with the reviewer who said they didn't ilke it with other overdrives/fuzz/distortion. This pedal works best as an alternative to those in either clean or boosted/edge of feedback mode. With low attack, >50% level, & cleanish amp setting, most notes to bleed into feedback as you add vibrato to them (which is just what I wanted of the pedal). Tone is very good (warm) from the pedal
Two downsides, the background hiss is quite noticeable (and even introducing a Noise Suppressor doesn't stop it) and the addition of compression is quite "lumpy" rather than gradually adding it.
Reliability/Durability:
No problems so far (bought 2nd hand from E Bay along with a Pearl Flanger, Chorus, Distortion and Noise Suppressor, all have same solid build quality)
Ease of Use:
With Attack, Sustain, Level and Tone controls the pedal has all the necessary knobs. Its relatively easy to set up with the attack control offering the major variable (Sustain on mine is long even at minimum setting, and Level offers a fair boost).
Customer Support:
Dont make pedals any more so difficult to rate.
Overall Rating:
I like this pedal for how I use it (as an alternative to overdrive/distortion/fuzz). It does exactly what I want providing a warm edge of feedback tone. Combined with just a graphic equaliser you can get a great variety of sounds. Works well with modulation effects aswell. I would defintely get a replacement if mine broke (although they are not that common).
