OD9 takes it to 11

They way I see it, there are two ways to use this pedal. If you explore the various drive and level combinations you will have a sweet blues overdrive. If you turn the level all the way up and the drive all the way down and put it in front of a high gain tube amp you will hear the metal sound of your dreams. I was skeptical until I tried it myself. I can never go back. The Maxon OD9 will be always be on in my setup. It does not take away any of bass whatsoever, like other od pedals, and it is true bypass should you ever want to turn it off (which I won't). Get one today!

I got this a couple weeks ago and I have been very impressed. This has an awsome tone, great for SRV fans like me. I would reccmmend buying from analogman.com which is where I bought mine. I got it with the Silver modification which makes it a little more vintage sounding and I couldn't be happier. Definately worth the price.

Simply Amazing

Ive been checking this out for a while, then I finally decided to buy it....and WOW. This is pedal is simply amazing. I dont know why they say that this isnt a Metal pedal, because thats mostly all I play and its great for it. It made my tone and overall tone just simply amazing. When in clean and have it on it gives you that awesome 70's rock kinda sound. But back some regular overdrive behind it and your really rockin. Again it gives this amazing tone. I would recomend it to anyone because you will be sorry you bought it. Just overall great pedal

WORST OD I'VE EVER BOUGHT

Do not buy this if you are expecting any kind of grit whatsoever. Those sound clips are the biggest lie I have ever heard in my life. This thing sounds absolutely horrible for any type of rhythm sound, or saturated lead sound, and has no chance at all as a stand alone pedal, yet alone with amps overdrive. The only time this pedal was ever bearable was when it was with open chords with my amp's overdrive on maybe 2. The switch is not like a tubescreamer. While I tried to turn it on and off it would switch on and off maybe 3-4 times when I just pushed it once. The pedal has a terrible miscoop sound too it, and NO LOW end whatsoever. But at least you get earpiercing highs (pun intended).

This beast...

It took me a while to get past the fact that I need to own this tool so vital to my tone. I can honestly say, I am enjoying my Framus Cobra much more now that I own it. It definitely brings clarity to the mix, boosts the treble and helps increase the low end. Great clean boost, if you're using it like me.
