This pedal is really for the extremists out there. If you want to play Thrash Metal, Death Metal, Even Black Metal, you might want to give this a try. I play Black Metal mostly, ergo I crank up the treble a lot and along with good tube amp, this can take you far. If you're looking for atmosphere in your music, using dissonant chords, with heavy distortion, Harley Benton have not forgotten you. The Feedback level of this pedal whilst quite high at points adds to the already powerful sustain. The Bass knob whilst very good, is that of a distortion pedal, so in that sense do not expect too much out of it unless you have a good amp. The Treble and mids at low levels, will give you a healthy blues overdrive sound, whilst at higher levels, will enable you to achieve a grungier, Thrashier or a more extreme sound. It is a very versatile pedal, and for its price, it is definetely worth trying out. Best piece of advice I can offer with this pedal, is a noise gate pedal as well, as the feedback unless controlled through the Boost and Drive knobs, can get pretty dirty at points, so combatting it with a good noise gate, is the way to go.
