OVERDRIVE- TC ELECTRONIC Cinders Overdrive ...literally ...a Boss Blues Driver ...compared

 TC ELECTRONIC CINDERS OVERDRIVE 

$50.00 USD
It is a clone of a Boss Blues Driver in my book it is more than good enough to substitute it. Obvious less money but better than others that are only a little less or indeed more money. It is an odd pedal that can be used for just a boost to a low gain or medium gain which it is famous for. I am not finished. If you dime it is a reasonable sub for a Plexi. 
Perhaps an oxymoron but it quite metallic sounding but warm at the same. Last but not least it has a laser like treble so you could use it as treble booster.

CONCLUSION
I fail to see it's Blues name. It is really too nasty.
I suppose if you were to use it as booster on a Fender Deluxe type amp to push out some warm dirt with an edge. The same thing as a one size fits all. It does everything quite well but nothing perfect. Do not get me wrong I really quite like it. It could be the perfect problem solver as we all find that no matter how many great 'Drives' you own there is always that tune or two that nothing fits. This would!!!
