No MIDI, no usb, no lamp or coffee machine ...

on the other hand true bypass and three buttons efficient you can even happen is the battery size 9v plug boss.

UTILIZATION

To be simple is simple huh, volume gain tone ...
The volume is therefore to have a bit more than one bypass is nine hours ...
The tone is like the ts7 od10 or fame, namely that everything is on the last stages of the race, blah.
The gain is very gradual, a treat.
The grain is overdrive, distortion or not entredeux (like digitech screamin blues), so it remains in the first amplification stage is fairly round.

SOUND QUALITY

This is the best overdrive I, period.
Harley has managed the feat of having both the brightness and sharpness being warm and relaxed air in response to attacks.
There is this side beaded unique champagne kind that I have found nowhere else.
For the price it's amazing, given that 808 is unable to provide such a finesse / heat, for example (though more elaborate label 8x).

I use a vox amp types, the amp is a Kustom Defender 5 class A is the boxes are under 2x10 3x10, the sound is great.
Digitech RP70 on headphones via the overdrive equally convincing.

This is the only that gives me such good results with a les paul and strat in a double derivative simple, I had it up to deal with the fame and od10 three options.
Why complicate life eh, especially the Harley sounds much better.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it in tandem with its sister crunch distortion (one for the other for crunch tough) and it is really great with a guitar not too greasy.
For les paul and other heavy I need to replace the crunch distortion by the shockwave jet city to stay clean, but the vintage overdrive comes out masterfully in all cases.

One minute attention, you mentioned two harleys cost a 60 euros and are very well sound quality, while a horror boss dynadrive tax you 30 more ...

In short do not throw more, I also think seriously take a second.
