Really stong character, full of low end and mid scooped. I recommend to see/hear many videos and try it yourself before to buy it, because it's really easy not to like it.
It's Perfect for grounge I guess, not for classic rock (at least with my amp, fender blues junior tweed).

Not Versatile, but good
The classic
Cheap price, a classic sound and rock solid metal construction. It's even orange. What's not to love? Don't believe the snobs and haters who are down on this pedal. It's a flexible unit used with overdrives and compressors or on its own. Just don't crank the knobs all the way up.
