a joyo orange juice is a pretty good affordable replacement. this pedal costs about $50 and it sounds killer on bass. this demo showcase the outstanding sound quality of this pedal.



I was thinking of getting one myself along with one of their chorus pedals. I am intrigue on what joyo has to offer.

I'm presuming that great distorted tone is both the orange juice AND the green legend ??

Interesting, I swear I read somewhere on here recently someone spouting about the Tech 21 Oxford too.... May have to check these out
The Oxford is a beast. Makes the Leeds seem tame by comparison. It's grittier, grindier, and clankier, but the best part is this "grunt" it gives that I find all other Tech21 Character pedals lacking.

I've gotten similar tones out of it as when I had my VMT going into my B3K. I can provide comparison clips and more. I even have some old Leeds clips, too.

The beginning part sounds like he did used both pedal. the orange juice does have a killer grinding sound on bass. I was thinking of climbing aboard the cheaper pedals bandwagon once again by getting the joyo orange juice along with the future chorus.
