OVERDRIVE- WYONG RD ELECTRONICS No Mask-Sziklai Distorter__NEW__Fuzzish/OD

WYONG RD ELECTRONICS
no mask-Sziklai Distorter
$135.00 USD
A new company from Australia with a modest OD at a good price with either 
a witty name or a pretentious moniker. You decide. To be fair Sziklai is tech speak for 2 bipolar transistors. It looks cool.
The layout is volume and gain with two stages of bass cuts using a toggle. 
CONCLUSION___ 
It sounds OK but so do a lot of $30.00 Chinese OD's. 
It has a Jorge Tripps OD vibe with its bit of Fuzz thing. 
It hints at transistors in its name, but could have an  
OpAmp for its roots. It lacks any serious character.  
Even the right wart or scar in the tone can make such  
a pedal a bit special. It is not silly money for a hand  
made jobbie. For a first pedal it is very promising.
I like it, but it takes a bit of infatuation ...to cheat 😇
