I bought this pedal from Guitar Center
for $40. I bought it after playing on one previously that belonged to a friend.
I couldn't get over the sound of it. It has such a nice gritty sound. This is a very versatile pedal that I use quite a bit for recording and for use on the road.

I love the grit. It has Assymetrical clipping so it resembles what a tube will due when it's overdriven. I play through it with a new Tele and a Strat. It has plenty of gain and the tone knob really defines the sound of this unit.
Besides the Fulltone Fulldrive 2, this one is my favorite. It's very responsive to your picking and dynamics.

There is nothing about this unit that I dont like.

Built tough - I have had no problems with it.

This is a great overdrive - both for solo work and rhythm.
