MXR M103 Blue Box Octave Fuzz Distortion Pedal

This unassuming little box shovels out enough low frequencies to scare a blue whale. It takes your guitar signal, fuzzes it up, then duplicates it two octaves down. You control the output and the mix between the dry signal and the effect. Using it 100% wet is quite an experience, but more recognizable sounds appear as you dial In more dry signal. The Blue Box is known for having a chaotic personality that can make each session a totally unique experience! Powered by a single 9 volt battery or Dunlop's ECB-002 AC adapter.

Controls
Footswitch toggles effect on/bypass (red LED indicates on) Output knob sets total output gain Blend knob adjusts ratio of dry (clean) with wet (effects) signal.

Subject:This pedal is one of a kind!
Quality: Totally dependable, I could drop it of a building.
Sound: The fuzz is very warm sounding, mixed with a -2 octave I'd say this pedal is very dark. I often run an overdrive with it to brighten it up a bit. Sounds great with tremolo too.
Reliability: perfectly
Overall: This is a fun and quirky effect, but it's probably not for everyone. Looks cool, it's very well built, and most importantly it's analog.
Playability and Feel: Rubber knob cover things make it easy to adjust with my foot.
Tone: warm and analog.
Finish: I looks super cool, I was disapointed when I got it though, I recieved one with the block logo instead of the script. Whatever, I had a feeling that was gonna happen... I opened it up and was like F@#%, Oh well.
Action: flawless
Skill Level: Semi-Pro

Subject:niche pedal
Quality: Typical MXR quality - top notch.
Sound: The tone is absolutely unique. Not an effect you'll use regularly, just occasionally for a flavor.
Reliability: Haven't had the particular pedal very long, but it's built like my other MXR and should last indefinitely.
Overall: Unique sound texture, very well-built pedal. Overall good pedal.
Playability and Feel: Very easy to use, simple knob configuration.
Tone: Bizarre & thick.
Finish: Finish was flawless.
Action: Excellent right out of the box.
Skill Level: Semi-Pro
Do you own this product?: Yup.
