I had my friend Austin who plays bass write me another review (he wrote a review of the Clone Theory for me a while ago). Anyway I will let his writing speak for it’s self-
“This pedal is basically the original Big Muff but attuned to bass frequencies. Let me start out by saying that this is my favorite distortion pedal. So with that said, we can move on to why. This pedal has three knobs: Volume, Tone, and Sustain. The volume knob is self explanatory. The tone knob controls if the treble is accentuated or if the bass is accentuated (also pretty obvious). The sustain knob controls the amount of distortion that is put on the sound. It also has a three option switch in the center, there is a normal option (which is just the sound with what ever distortion setting you have), there is a bass boost option, which is very self explanatory, and finally it has a dry option. The dry option mixes the dry signal with the distorted signal to add a different sound to your bass. And when this option is on, the volume only controls the distorted signal, and not the dry.
This pedal puts out some sick distortion. I prefer having the tone knob all the way to the right (high treble) so I can get a really biting sound. With its small size it can fit anywhere on a pedal board. I can really say nothing bad about this pedal, it passes the shake test, it passes the size test, and it over achieves on the awesome test. Yet again Electro-Harmonix has created a sick pedal. So if you are wanting an amazing, awesome, and cheap distortion pedal (if 80 bucks is cheap for you, in the pedal market it is) then you have found a beauty. So, does it Rock? OH YA BABY!!! Like a crazy guy in a mental hospital trying to escape in a rocking chair!”
Whenever I play music with Austin and he kicks this disortion in, it sounds great, anything from real thick beefy stuff to any sort of high bass lead part! And it’s a great price too! As austin said, this thing definatly ROCKS!
