This is hands down the best distortion pedal i have ever played
This is hands down the best distortion pedal i have ever played, it covers everything from late 60's blues - 70's rock soft to heavy and into 80's metal I have been shredding with this thing non-stop it really is an all round rock/metal pedal bursting with classic vintage sounds.

Box of Rox!
This is my new favourite box of rock. With a strat into any of my amps it does all I need - I'm learning to create tone with my fingers instead of just cranking the gain on some "metal" pedal to 11!

Great sounding Distortion, which is built to last.
Great sounding Distortion, which is built to last. It has the standard MXR design which means changing batteries are a plain, but most people use power suppliers anyway. And having a relatively small foot print is a worthwhile trade-off.

Très bonne pédale de disto vintage, elle me permet de jouer du Deep Purple et Scorpions avec boost pour rendre la distortion plus dense.

I bought this pedal wanting classic distortion and find it more useful as an overdrive pedal. The distortion range does not get as hot as a RAT or MXR classic distortion but it sounds great with a telecaster and tube amp. I use it with a cigar box guitar also for fun and the tone ranges from 60's and 70's distortion to 80's metal. I get a more extreme distortion from my old hissing Boss Mega Distion as an example. I like that the pedal has a wide array of uses. The build quality seems questionable from MXR. As others have posted, the box is very light and the knobs seem thinner than other MXR's, espeacially the older ones, but this pedal seems solid and makes no noise. The price and demo videos were the primary reason I bought this pedal and I am happy with it. I have many distortion pedals and each one is useful in their own way. I would steer clear of this if you are looking for a pedal for metal and definately buy it if you are into classic rock, twang, and blues.
