This ain't your grandpa's Tube Screamer. Yes it has noticeable transparent qualities but it is very rich and sumptuous.There is no shiny gloss on this pedal. It has the kind of sound you feel you may find on a very early 50's low powered tube amp.
It is the kind of OD you can lay in behind the vocals all night and if you want you can get busy without the singer telling you to tame it down. It lays right in the mix. Like all the shoe pedals you get incredible detail in the tone. The layout has volume, gain, treble and a bass
cut with a switch for adding that just right compression and sustain or you can go for a lot of wide open headroom.
Every detail is point to point hand wired. It is a work of art.
CONCLUSION
Shoe pedals do not give you an adrenaline rush. I have very few of those that stay on my board. They are like a drug that the high is great but the pain when you crash is scary.
Just like all Shoe pedals the longer you have it the more attached you get.
They are the pedal equivalent of great old guitars still killing it 50 years later.
