«  Big Foot = Big Sound! (But subtle!) »

The Fender Sub-Lime is a Fuzz analog (I think), Made in Korea (good stuff!)
A mindless Fuzz.
A heavy steel box, but pretty darn solid! And with style!

UTILIZATION

The configuration seems simple ... Except when the pedal back and we see two knobs (OD-TONE and X-Frequency) ... A bit problematic when you want to adjust the pedal quickly. If three knobs are visible on both sides (Volume and Drive) and a huge pedal that acts on the presence of the fuzz from the bass sound, it is amusing: a system of LEDs located below that change color ("Oooooooooh") from green (left) and red (right) adding a little style to the pedal had no lack.
The manual is very clear when to use knobs. When we used to, we do it quickly.

SOUND QUALITY

Boy, that's a fuzz as I rarely tried. Not at all the sound of a Big Muff Pie, less muddy, less dirty, sharper and more dynamic. This is closer to a fuzz overdrive, but is not absolutely dry! Short term in a UFO fuzz, first time I came across this ... And what is effective! I use it with my Ashdown ABM 500 Evo II, and my Fender Precision Bass Deluxe Mexican series, and what it sends! We can do anything with! an extremely versatile pedal, especially for rock and electro! Well suited to quiet songs for a light crunch! And above all: Really quiet! no buzz, no breath to activate!
Anyway I like this pedal!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for exactly 2 years! And she fucks! I tried a lot of fuzz and I do not have bad side of this one, but nothing comparable in sound! It is really different, and I love him for it, in addition to his look (a good solid look!). The thing I like least is the knobs below, otherwise do not worry!
A fantastic price quality ratio for its versatility! Fender has delivered a magnificent pedal but obviously is not for sale ... She would have a commercial oven? possible.

Ps: First bug recently arrived: the entrance to the adapter seems to be the cause of an unusual buzz ... After resoldered this component more worries!

In short: it's safe!
