Good pedal, not for bass.
Good pedal, sounds nice. It is a transparant overdrive, more driven then the Horseman from NUX.
It is a DIGITAL pedal (i think) because it has a start up sequence. When give it power, the light will go on and off, other digital pedals i used did the same thing.
The way the low end distorts, i personally think, for my taste, it is not ment for bass.

Good as first pedal on the pedal board.
It has a high input impedance, thus keeps the high frequencies intact. Also you can chose to use "true bypass" or buffered bypass, the last gives you always high input impedance.
I don't like the way you have to select between the 2 (holding the foor switch during powering up).
The gain control knob is more a low-cut control than a gain control.
You have the most lows when gain is at minimum. Already around 9 o'clock you will notice some bass is removed, this is not an error, but a design choice. More gain = less bass. You can use this as tight control when using a high gain pedal further on the chain.
With my tele, the distortion starts around 1 o'clock, but even with the gain at max, there is not much distortion.
I don't like the distortion that much, it is not bad, but... Well, I admit, I am not that much of a fan of opamp+diode-clipping distortion.
The combination of the TONE knob plus the SHINE funtion gives you enough room for finding the right balance of high content.
It does not like switch mode power supplies.
I use a linear power supply from Electro-Harmonix, that works fine.
Overall I like it for the buffering and the low and high frequency filtering.
I think that I will use it a lot.
