KNOBS Volume, Overdrive, Tone footswitch

SOUNDS Brute force. This pedal specializes in blistering fuzz at high output levels, but it also elicits chiming ring-modulator-like timbres on intervals and chords when you roll down the guitar volume. Pressing the Tone footswitch unleashes an allencompassing low-end wallop that tends to overshadow some of the more subtle tonalities, but, depending on your needs, that might be exactly what you want.

WHO’S IT FOR? If you’re into sonic thuggery you won’t be disappointed, but metal thrashers and those who covet oddball fuzz textures can find common ground here.
