My Distortionation Quest Hath Ended

Sign in to disble this ad
(for now, anyway)

I have one of these:


Due to the fact that my mom is trying to sleep and I will be visiting the girlfriend at her college this weekend means I wont be able to play with this thing until next week

but, meantime, I have already dialed in 3 tones I love. How did I not find out about this pedal before?

i wasnt a fan of the sound clips i heard of the xxl, personally. sounds to artificial for me. although some would argue that an artificial-sounding sound is the whole point behind a distortion pedal

it does have a teesny bit of that, but, like, it sounds REALLY BIG. Perfect for 2-man Drum and bass Doom Sludge.

it also feedsback like a mother****er. This pedal is the excellence.
