OVERDRIVE- MZO FX Ohm Drive ...versatile from low gain to high ...lacks character ???

 MZO FX OHM DRIVE v.2 
$200.00 USD
Justin TenCate couldn't find an OD he liked so he sat down in 2009 and kept working at it until he did.
In 2011 he finally had nailed it.
The layout is volume, treble and drive, the texture is a mid boost a switch lets you cut lows to tighten the sound and timbre controls the headroom. You can have full headroom or you can compress the signal and add a thick saturation and sustain.
The pedal runs on 18v so to give you all that headroom. The  timbre will give you amp like transformer like sag and sustain. It sounds as good using it for a low gain OD right through to nudging into a high gain.
CONCLUSION
It is very versatile but lacks the character of pedals tailored for one sound like for example a Plexi.
Ideal if you love your amp and wish to keep it's character basically intact but it won't turn a Fender
into a Marshall. An excellent pedal with a lot of
flexibility.
