OVERDRIVE- HAGERMAN AMPLIFICATION Distort ...it doesn't get simpler

$130.00 USD
 HAGERMAN AMPLIFICATION DISTORT 
Another company under the radar from Hawaii.
Mostly known for their tube boost, comp and OD pedals 
It all started 38 years ago with analog silicon transistor pedals. 
The line has a Fuzz, Phaser, Comp, Boost and Distortion pedal.
The most obvious thing is the Hammond 1590 C flanged enclosure casing instead of a standard 1590 B. The idea
that allows for tie down or attach methods to be used as well as velcro. They come in black which keeps down 
some costs with painting.
The layout hardly needs even stating :-)
It must be noted that Hagerman makes 
Gourmet tube HiFi amps. 
In short high standards of quality are a given.
CONCLUSION
No matter how many bells or whistle a pedal sinks or 
swims on it's initial 'voicing'. I find it daring to simply
make the whole sound totally reliant on a totally fixed 
voice. I would not recommend it as your only pedal
but it actually sounds rather impressive. It would make 
a really great booster either directly to your amp or 
stacked on another OD.
