Distortion-lightweight elsewhere

USE

3 potentiometers ("knobs" read often) volume-drive-Tone sensitive any manipulation- l was enough.
manual ??? no comment

SOUND QUALITY

This is my first pedal after 35 years of playing guitar (wes school, django, benson, pass, hall); the reason for the deprivation fire: do not lose the swing by increasing the typical jazz sound.
But the voil Scofield, Metheny, Jack, Frisell have modernized sounds, amen other colors without denying the spirit of jazz, sometimes bringing a touch of discreet effects.
With the pedal tweezers overdrive gives some teeth, rounded sound, gives a somewhat pleasant blues colors even my faith, especially in the chorus: finding the right position with the played piano accompaniment that does not distortionne (for clarity rich jazz chords) and the lightweight distortion for solos playing harder. (Listen to the sublime Scofield). (+ A + a chorus clamp finger rverb).
obviously do not push the button overdrive to half or bottom because the pain-my cows are more regain his calves and a guitarist and his Sol13 Rb9 + 5- o then we must play chords of a single note (????????????), two limit.
I use the effect with the sheraton II (micro seth lover) and amp peavey delta blues lamp.
The use my guitar 3/4 fund is not conclusive for now (it is made for pure tones like wes or joe pass).
share this lightweight coloration of the sound, the pedal is transparent and does not change the sound when the overdrive is 0.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I use it for 6 months (+ repet szene).
particularity measurable effect patant (if one prefers vintage).
I tried a few seconds of large pedals distortion- ho horror ....; and I found it l.
The report qualitprix seems excellent; I hopes to it will last several decades.
it is a patante pedal (vintage) so very very modern jazz and probably other music set from the classic (though? ... see Roland Dyens for r response).
with the experience I would have made that choice there thirty years.
