Overdrive that responds to your playing.

Preserve your amp's warm, silky tone while pushing your sound into overdrive!

As with all Cooltron pedals, the Big Ben's true bypass allows you to let your signal flow through untouched.

Best OD pedal for money

OK. I have some pretty nice stuff. Boss, Digitech, Fulltone. Believe it or not, I find myself using this pedal more than any other. I don't understand someone saything this is "cheaply made". I find it is quality constructed and has a more desireable tone in certain ranges than any other pedal I own. I think every pedal has a sweet spot. And that sweet spot is different to everyone's ears. I am NOT a give everything all 5's all the time sort of reviewer. I just wrote a scathing review of the Vox Tonelab ST. For the money, this is a terrific buy. And that's how I rate things. If this was a $300 pedal I would mark it down a bit, but for the money, I think it is in "best buy" category.

I've read the mixed reviews and found parts of each that I agree with. The pedal looks awesome, but is big and cheaply made. The switch feels like it's a few stomps away from going. The overdrive does sound pretty good, but there's not a lot of volume with it. I matched it with a Visual Sound Rt 808, and the 808 puts it to shame. More volume, more breakup, way better construction, solid quality, GREAT sound- overall better value.

I like it, I own it. The drive is so smooth. It just found a permanent place on my pedalboard setup. It's nice to look at too.

good pedal

Posted by wtf from antartica on Oct 15, 2008

Reviewer's Background: enough

Reviewer's Play Style: lots

I bought this thing used. It sounds great. Capable of a light breakup or full on marshall-like roar. It's also awesome in front of an overdriven amp. It's very sturdy and looks awesome, it is a little on the big side but worth the pedalboard real estate. covers blues, rock, and even some metal if tweaked right. rippin'
