Members iamthearm Posted November 21, 2012 Members Share Posted November 21, 2012 just picked up one of these in a trade out of pure curiosity. I figured having a tube based comp with a ton of tweakability couldn't hurt to have around. My rig isn't at my house right now so I'm anxious to hear it in action.

Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted November 21, 2012 Members Share Posted November 21, 2012 I've always wanted to try one of those, despite the low voltage use of the tube. Not many tube compressor pedals out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil O'Keefe Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I always wanted to try one of the Over The Top Boosts with my AC15. So far, the opportunity has never presented itself. I'm not normally a fan of starved plate / low voltage "toob" designs, but occasionally things can surprise you - I hope this turns out to be one of those times!

I have had the Bulldog distortion for about 3/4 years, and the cooltron range is cool as and is rather over looked. But yeah LED... bummer.
