OVERDRIVE- DANELECTRO Roebuck ...Ibanez Mostortion clone, a few

 DANELECTRO 
ROEBUCK | 
$200.00 USD
The Ibanez Mostortion came out in the the 90's but except for Nashville studio players it did poorly. It was the first to have a pedal using FET transistors. A FET has the same characteristics of real 
tubes and most of the very best Amp-in-a-Box pedals use them. It
does indeed have tube like qualities and players say it is all about 
the feel and the dynamics responding to your touch. Hit hard it expresses loud or hit lighter and lighter it can smoothly follow 
more and more or less and less of any amplitude you create.
The layout is Volume, Gain, Bass, Mids and Treble.  
 
   CONCLUSION ___ 
As a category it's a semi transparent 
medium gain overdrive. Those FETs 
make it a surprisingly damn good one.

  1. The Ginean Excitation is very good. Any idea of what is the Ginean Divine Knight ?

  2. I am I am in the dark about the Knight (pun intended, lol) There are not any videos or even guesses of what it is. The first Ginean was a Tube Screamer, then a DOD Fuzz then a DOD OD. They now have several other pedals also without a video. I can only find pics of the those. A couple may be DOD but not all of them. They have Modulator ...a ring mod DOD clone There is a Phaser plus another OD and a Boost/Pre.
    A U.S. store called PLOUTONE have pics of them but no info, so you can have a look. They want $101.00 to $105.00. AliExpress will certainly have better prices if they do have any.
