When this Pedal first came out I heard a sound clip on the website and it sounded awesome but when I bought it I kept tweaking it over and over and the sound is way to muddy and lacks tone clarity...It Would be better if it had a sound gate on it to knock-out a "hissing" feedback. Although it has decent sound for jammin' out purposes only.

I bought this pedal about two years ago and couldn't wait to plug it in. I began playing immediately and was disgusted by the hum. I figured since this was the first pedal i had ever used it was just me that needed to adjust the knobs. After about two months of using it i figured out how to use it and i loved the sound of the distortion. However i wasnt able to use it at the same time as any chorus or flange effects without getting a violent screeching sound. However, the pedal run through a reverb or echo pedal sounds amazing and it gets great sustain. I found that overall it sounded better when plugged into an acoustic amp than in an electric one. I would recomend this for players who want to get a 90's alertnative sound, but it doesnt live up to its name as a death metal pedal

I got this pedal off a friend for real cheap so i figured hey ill get it at first it took sometime getting it set to what i wanted sound wise but from there on out i loved the sound of it!!! the only slight problem i haad was feedback every so often but its probably because i was sitting next to it on the floor.... all in all i love this product and yes i would recamend it to friends

I just got this pedal today, and I can't put my guitar down. Although this is my first pedal, I absolutely love the chunk it delivers. I did try the GRUNGE pedal from Digitech - same price, same features, and it did sound great; but as you brobably guessed its just not as chunky. This thing makes my little fender 15 practice amp sound VICIOUS, and thats with the pedal set at 2 on level, 3 on low, and the mid and high channels at 0. It can can also give you a kind of grungy sound by leaving the pedal on, and all the knobs at 0 except for the level - and adjust sound with your amp, guitar, and level on the pedal. I did play with all of the settings before purchasing, and was satisfied it would deliver all the chunk I could ever want. I'm so glad I bought it - and what a great price. I played off and on for 8 hours, only taking breaks to rest my wrist and fingers. It's like getting a whole new guitar. I still can't get over what a difference this little jem makes. I can't wiat to hear it through my 85 watt Peavey 112 tomorrow. I'm gonna shake this house good. Now; if there's a down-side this is it; no power adapter. If it came with a power adapter I would have given it a 5 out of 5 for features instead of 4. I think the Death Meatal pedal is an excelent buy.I hope this review was helpful.

I bought this pedal thinking I was getting a good deal on a name brand pedal. I was wrong. To those of you that like this thing... more power to you. Personally, I think the distortion is ok when I'm playing, but like others... as soon as I stop it hums and feeds back bad. It's tolerable when practicing at home, but there's no way I could use it at band practice or at a show. It's just too noisy.
