UTILIZATION

Very weak point of the pedal, after that there are in the chain must play on the battery otherwise it will bring out the best noise / hiss or imcompatibilités (Fuzz, treble booster ...) I n ' happens not to understand is that with the EVH and ZW no problemo ... pedal probably capricious
Otherwise I find it lacks flexibility, the pan is too rigid, it is broken testicle
Last boost it a little signal so we have a little breath

SOUND QUALITY

with red Fasel was quite generous, very typical vintage old school with nice bump quite low, it sounds pretty dark, great on clean and the low drive
with such as red but more open less dark yellow Fasel was this bump vintage typed, ideal for drive a little more muscular guy middle gain, the record is less packed
compared to the ZW is with red Fasel, the frequency of the CAE is narrower, the ZW sounds less vintage, more balanced signal with a slightly less eaten one is between the red and yellow Fasel, after I use the ZW in a high gain register, see middle gain
compared to the EVH is less brilliant snapping, the EVH is more expressive, this is now my favorite pedal, vintage certe less but more happening everywhere
The big black dot that's with my Germanium Fuzz where there imcompatibilité sound is chopped and it blows serious with a Silicon Fuzz it goes better

OVERALL OPINION

It's a good pedal, the Fasel red / yellow bright side why not but it's my favorite gadget have a simple Wah with a sound and complete, the boost I do not use I already pedals boost ...
Pedal that I have not kept my favorite because it is the heart EVH I find more expressive with this middle comes out great and brighter in a vintage channel after slap ... in a modern channel I keep my ZW
Which inflated me is the lack of flexibility of the plate, the sound a bit dark takes over and imcompatibilité side with other pedal ...
