Members R Corso Posted April 19, 2008 Members Share Posted April 19, 2008 Very Distorted. $40 is a good price. Take it. I would. Randy Rhoads used it, so did Bob Mould. That's a pretty wide range of styles right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a pretty wide range of styles right there. It it was it is. Never cared for it myself so I gave mine to a good friend who swears by it. $40 is a decent price. Get it, try it, tell us what you think. They sound great in front of Fender amps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Corso Posted April 19, 2008 Members Share Posted April 19, 2008 You said it man. Also gnarly into SS amps, like JC120. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thatmullingskid Posted April 19, 2008 Members Share Posted April 19, 2008 it's alright good distortion, but only gets to unity gain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty Belle Posted April 19, 2008 Members Share Posted April 19, 2008 it starts turning into fuzz on full and for that reason i dont like it as a distortion.as a pseudo-fuzz its cool tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Corso Posted April 19, 2008 Members Share Posted April 19, 2008 The bypass was pretty bad, as I remember...some leakage, like you could hear a faint distortion in the background when it was off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Fenderman1991 Posted April 20, 2008 Members Share Posted April 20, 2008 A little too distorted for me. It depends what you play... I prefferred the Distortion III. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members valvestate Posted April 20, 2008 Members Share Posted April 20, 2008 Thin but coupled with your amp's overdrive's... ROCK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members The*Ataris Posted April 20, 2008 Members Share Posted April 20, 2008 You know, it's kind of cool. My singer runs one into a twin reverb and gets some really unique tones out of it. The first song on our myspace player, "Sleepwalkers for Life", is a good example of something it can do. Epi Hollowbody >> Dist+ >> Twin Reverb The pedal is set to about 10 o'clock on the distortion and unity gain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members justintee Posted April 20, 2008 Members Share Posted April 20, 2008 i sampled one only briefly, and didn't quite like it. i suppose i don't really like using distortion type pedals, although i do like my tube zone... i also agree with the fuzziness comment...
