my new overdrive

Got mine the other day, cool pedal. Retains the lows, highs, mids, whatever you throw into it stays there and just gets dirty. Very nice. I thought I'd miss having a tone knob, but no. Not the most amazing overdrive character I've heard, but quite good, and if you are picky about keeping your original tone (without blending), this works great. The only downside is no battery, but it isn't too big of a deal. Freakin' amazing price.

Haven't had time to make any clips, but I'm about to rearrange my board in serious fashion, so hopefully will then.
 
i really dig the sound of this small box! i ordered one and the builder is quite a nice guy to deal with. but it took me 3 emails for him to reply and finally decided to make me one. i love my bassdrive but the size turns me off. i hope this one could replace it! will post again when i get it. thanks for the clips! very convincing!
 
i sent another mail got a reply. but whats with the price hike? he is asking for US $65 for the od +shipping extra?? wasnt it for 50$??

I talked recently with the constructor of this pedal and I just wanted to forward a certain info: due to high demand right now he spends all his free time making this overdrives, so the price is raised to 65$.

that's how much it cost now.
 
thanks phatbass
i had a question though... if i create a paypal account and send him the money then what if he doesnt ship/send the pedal from his end? (i have never traded online at all so please help) is there a way to get my money back?

there's some guys here in TB who has their pedals already. so i don't think what you're thinkng will happen. i think he's a very reliable person (the builder). we're on the same boat, its quite difficult to find good effects pedal here in thailand. if there are, its very expensive. so most of my stuffs i ordered from th US and Singapore, so far i didn't had any problems.

actually i was asking about it like "just in case" because i have never traded online as i said before.
