I really like this pedal, it didn’t took me so long to find the sweet point of sound I was looking for.
Compared to the distortion of a DSL amp, the JCM800 pedal is way more edgy and treble driven but with the sensitivity knob you can add more mid and bass body to the sound. I think that is great for a lead sound.
I have used this pedal with a solid state Vox amp and a Fender Twin Reverb and in both cases it brought the Marshall sound with no problem. That’s why I think this pedal is a great way to bring the Marshall tone everywhere.
Right now I’m using this pedal as my lead sound in combination with my DSL5CR amp from where I use the ultra gain as the crunch sound.

Very good effect for its price (Made in Vietnam). Heavier than it needs to be, but ...! It runs on a battery (9 volts) with a low current consumption (20 mA). Be careful with the GAIN, SENSITIVITY(second distortion) & TONE settings, they are very sensitive and you need to find your "sweet spots". In my case, I needed to add TS9DX to achieve the tone I like. You experiment! Good luck!

It is the distortion from the JCM800

... But I have some issues with the volume. I find it weird that to be as loud as the other drives, it needs to be at 9 (while the others are halfway through or just slightly higher (5-6). Other than that, perfect in combination with the TS9 and with the big muff. Also big pedal, which is no longer part of the pros. But all in all I am happy.
