OVERDRIVE- MXR Prime Distortion ... 9 years old and still loved :-)

MXR| PRIME DISTORTION 

$60.00 USD

Give or take 10 years ago there was not an obsession for MIAB that literally struggled 

to nail that just perfect Super Lead or JTM 45 etc. It was enough to just get a great 

Brit sound which meant just a good  Marshall, HiWatt and Orange vibe. If it include the voicing to sound like it was being pushed by a Fuzz or Tube Screamer or even a Rat all the better, lol. Well good ol' MXR made just such a pedal. It is really a modified high-clipper Distortion, which means it is a Rat but a much more polite one, LOL. MXR still listed on their site but anything this old can easily fall thru the cracks since it's not this years new wonder OD. Who but me would go looking for lost treasures.

CONCLUSION

It really does a decent Brit/Fuzz type sound. It is fat and punchy and just plain nasty. It may be listed but it is probably out of production but many stores have brand new old stock. Guitar Center has it listed for just $60.00 USD. 

That is made in China priced :-)
