OVERDRIVE-NUX Metal Core ...Boss clone? maybe? Cheap? ...Yes!

 NUX METAL CORE DISTORTION 

$45.00 USD
This has been around for years. An obvious take on the Boss metal Core. The Boss get's a lot of flack as is so a clone gets even more. The deluxe has replaced it but a review by a guy who has both convinced me that 
the original is much better. Both pedals have a standard scooped voice but also a MESA Dual Rectifier voice. The guy that bought the 2 says the best voice on the original was scrapped and the one they kept is now muddy.
The layout is simple with level, gain, treble and bass. A nice touch is when you leave the switch in the center position it locks your setting where you dialed it into. Noise is kept at bay with a built in gate. Like the the Boss it too does not have level or presence.

CONCLUSION
I found a few reviews of the Deluxe but the price is more than doubled. I would be looking at the Boss at that price. 
The guy that has both certainly got my attention. At the price on AliExpress at $42,00 USD with free shipping WTF!!! I'm in!!
