A little underwhelmed. I have several Electro-Harmonix items with which I've been very happy and while this one basically delivered I wasn't impressed with the overdrive produced. One annoying feature is that though it can take a battery (which I'd need for a play-along group) it's nigh impossible to get a battery in the case and when I did, the base wouldn't screw back on fully at the battery end. I decided to return it, which is not to say it wouldn't be suitable for someone needing a medium overdrive and always having an extra mains socket to hand. On the plus side it comes with a power supply. It claims to draw only 22mA which sounds on the low side considering it's digital with several SM chips on board but I didn't bother to measure it.

A few years old now, but still a classic pedal. Easy to use and great tones.

I found the clean boost a little hollow sounding for me, my Danelectro Breakdown is better for that (but that is a more expensive pedal), however as an overdrive, this is much more versatile. You can dial in pretty much most types of overdrive/distortion, anything from subtle to over the top, this does the lot. Very impressive for the money & looks cute too

Good sound overall but a little thin - could do with a bit more oomph! Solidly built, but the footswitch is a little clunky All in all though a nice, usable pedal
