OVERDRIVE- WROUGHT IRON EFFECTS Orcrist ...low gain, transparent OD with one sweet tone!

 WROUGHT IRON EFFECTS ORCRIST OD 

$225.00 USD
From Japan comes a low gain OD with a full sweet tone.
I am not too sure about the graphics. Hallmark cards has done better. lol
OK,OK a groaner for sure.
The layout is Tone, Volume, Gain and Bite. The Bite is
usually called a boost but it really does add a bit of bite.
A switch on the end of the pedal switches the pedal to 18v
this usually for headroom but in this case I find it defeats
the smooth tone and pleasant compression. Grit is not the forte of the pedal.

A very careful listen shows there is a lot of detail in the sound and small changes in moving the knobs make alot of
difference in different subtleties in the sound.

It is not my 'thing' but I really admire anything this well done.
