OVERDRIVE- CKK ELECTRONIC Anka Distortion ...anything as good is 3 times more?

CKK ELECTRONIC ANKA DISTORTION

 $75.00 USD

I find both this pedal and all the work and care put in it impressive. This is the 5th version since it's inception. The company also makes the Sinvertek M5+ that is easily a competitor for the Origin Rival Drive Compact. The CKK is $225.00 USD and the Origin is $445.00 USD. The value for money of all CKK products is more than impressive. 

It appears to me that the Sinvertek's name hints at its origins as it is called '5' and the Anka version '5' is the 5th and final version of this pedal. I suspect it got down to costs. The company wants the Anka as the affordable option. Both pedals definitely have a very, very similar tone. The Sinvertek has quite literally dozens of option to fine tune it to the perfect medium gain right up to a silly high level of gain etc. 

I nearly never use a dirt pedal for more than one sound as all my dirt pedals are used live and used for the one sound they do best. It is not a thick syrupy kind of sound. 

It is all about clarity and detail and version '5' has taken that a step 

further. Unfortunately there are no new video's of the latest and last version. 

But there is no denying that even the older versions are very impressive.

CONCLUSION

If it said MXR or Wampler or JHS on it who wouldn't be impressed. If it was $225.00 USD would not look priced overly high.  It is only one third of that $75.00 USD on Aliexpress. WTF ...enough said!
