For this price is better to buy Yankee. Mxr has magic sign 'made in China', and it looks like. Low weight, not so solid as mxr used to be. Cables are low end. If you put it close to amp, you will hear dc distortion. Maybe it's good for pedalboard, when you don't move effects from side to side. Till now I haven't use pedalboard, but now it will be the must, cause cables won't last forever, i think it won't last for months. In sum, I am a bit dissapointed with my first chineese mxr.
