I run this right in front of my Dual Rectifier as a boost pedal. I usually use it with Strat or LP style guitars all with humbuckers.
Its not a noisy pedal and it doesn't suck tone. If you want to know what tone suck is try using a Crybaby wah.
On its own into a clean channel it can do a nice power tube breakup imitation quite well.
This thing really shines when you run it into a distortion channel. A dual rectifier on its own can sound a little dark and muddy, but with the monkey it tightens up the lows and ands a perfect amount of crunch.
