  • What can I say about this pedal other than - SUPERB!

    Italian made (no longer in production) Distortion pedal with 3 controls - Level Tone Gain.

    Solid Metal build - Lift-up top face(rear hinged) for Battery access.

    A DS-20 replaced this model but never seen/heard one. Neither currently produced.

    PROEL make quality Studio/Lighting/Sound gear
  • Good Points: BUT - this Pedal is *NOT* about Distortion! It is a magnificent clean boost/transparent drive/EQ pedal that does magical things:

    * Adds Clarity to dark sounding amps/or other FX

    * Adds articulation to your tone * Removes fuzziness from cheap gear * Removes 50 Mhz cycle hum!

    Batteries last ages.

    A demo of its clarity-adding function here:

    Oh and if you want to get that MICK RONSON/BOWIE/ZIGGY Les Paul Marshall tone - turn up the Gain and level-out the tone and plug in with your Les Paul into a Fender Super Reverb amp (of all things)!!
