OVERDRIVE- DOLLAMO D4 Distortion... a poor man's Fortin NATAS, dirt cheap!!!

DOLAMO D4 DISTORTION
$25.00 USD
The Dolamo brand is made by Caline. A few of their dirt pedals are dead on the others are crap. They lack any harmonic detail. The D4 is one of those few exceptions,😏. Be forewarned Dolamo make a D5 and D9 Distortion so it is confusing. 
I think this is a generic stab at getting a contemporary Metal pedal for the player that wants to 'Chug'. It has however, probably by luck, have caught the vibe of the Fortin NATAS amp. They are famous for this amp but also make a pedal of it.  
 CONCLUSION___
It is impressive, a bit noisy but impressive. 
If part of your thing needs this kind of sound 
then go for it. If it is your whole focus than 
check out the Fortin or the Solar CHUG.
...at the price it is hard to say no, ordered one from TEMU lol.

  2. It is very good. You get a Regeneration control that double backs the signal so you can push it into some scary territories if you wish. I am fairly sure it it uses the reissued old Panasonic BBD chips 3102 and 3105. They make a huge difference. There is nothing entry level about it. It is the real sh@t. Thanks for the heads up. I put it on my short list to review.
