But if you feel its too expensive, get the Behringer HM300 pedal instead. Both have their unique qualities. The behringer is super easy to get the swedish entombed sound. This one takes some time. but the behringer is more noisy while this is less noisy. This pedal needs a Godlyke power to power it or have to use a 9V battery. or else the LED will not glow. If you connect a regular 9v, some sound will come out, but its not going to sound anywhere close to the real thing. If you want to own a piece of history, this is it!

I typically use fuzz pedals but I like this pedal. It is not as 'over the top' as a lot of fuzz pedals, and it has better note definition with chords. I wouldn't say this is a 'pure' metal pedal, and that's what I like about it. If you dime all 4 knobs and you run through a Marshall, well then by golly it will be crazy in a metal way -- but what pedal wouldn't be? Even then, it retains a sort of 70's vibe and not some nu metal thang. For me, playing through a bedroom amp, it is nice because I can play with the EQ (bass, treble) and can get a nice sound that doesn't explode if you play non-barre chords like a heavy fuzz will. And although the knobs don't have a great range, you have a bit more room to play around with vs. your typical old-skool fuzz. I think it's a hoot -- just think about how you play and what you want to come out the speakers from whatever equipment you play through.Read full review

If you are trying to nail that Swedish death metal sound...look no further! If you want this pedal for anything else, look elsewhere. Unless you dime all the knobs, this pedal sounds like garbage. The fact that you have to spend $100 or more for one means that unless you want to sound like Dismember or early Entombed, spend your money elsewhere, there are plenty of new distortion pedals that get every other distortion sound WAY better.

Has a bigger bottom than most distortion pedals. Bigger bottom than the behringer hm300 (behringer still worth it though). This pedal would be better if it had 3 tone circuit. Good sounding pedal even without. Not as good for leads.

this pedal is a good choice for someone wanting a marshall jcm800 type sound. it is very versitile in that in has a wide treble to bass range. it is THE pedal for the swedish death metal sound, but can also get that thin brittle fuzz tone that is so hard to find in the usual fuzz pedal offerings. more tweaking and technique usage will also render believable tube screamer dynamics. david gilmour of pink floyd uses them! a sleeper. not many people know about these, or want to believe the possibilities this pedal offers. rawk-awn-doodz!
