i bought it today, and at first i had my amps gain all the way up and the pedals gain all the way up and it fed back a lot, and i could hardly hear the song. then i turned the gain on the amp down almost off, and left the pedal up. i love it.

This is a plastic pedal, but with a metal casing underneath, and it's heavy for its size. I gave my original to a friend, but I'm seriously regretting it. It has this kind of low grade gain type distortion that's pretty pummeling, and it's just got this awesome fuzz-like gritty sustain that really gets dirty when the battery is starting to die. In short, it's a fun pedal to crank and play for metal with feedback. Probably not for serious recording, but definitely worth every penny for having fun. I might just go buy another one.

Great Pedal

So for the price, I was very impressed. I've used pedals in this price range before that were terrible but this one was perfect. There are pedals I've used that cost between 50-150 dollars that sound exactly the same and it seems the only difference was the casing being plastic... so unless you plan on jumping on the pedal this is a pedal you NEED to have(assuming you are doing metal).

I'd recommend a suppresion pedal of some sort though, but as with all distortion pedals it's good to have one because of that classic HUM you get from the gain being up so high. I don't actually have a supression pedal so I'm having to use my Digitech RP200 as one. :p
