Product Review
This Pedal is awesome. Bought it for one riff and fell in love with it. Two knob design makes it very easy to dial in just about any tone you want. If you're looking for a sturdy Octave-Fuzz on a budget, I'd say you found it!

Product Review
Got this as a fuzz option for my board, take a little getting used to and dialing in a far as where to place in the signal chain. But once I got it locked, it sounds awesome. From hard fuzz to glitchy square bass, this thing make some serious noise. Only downside is that it seems a little quiet when engaged, but some engineering the signal path can minimize it.

Excellent.
Owned this pedal about a year with no problems, but I've also owned other MXRs for much longer with no problems. High quality stuff.

perfectly
Your general opinion of this product.
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.
Rubber knob cover things make it easy to adjust with my foot.
warm and analog.
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.

Your general opinion of this product.
QUALITY:
Built with quality parts, and great cosmetics, looks great on my board. The knobs are big and it is very easy to disturb one knob when adjusting the other. I replaced them with a set of real bone knobs with a slightly smaller diameter, it now looks awesome, and easier to adjust.
FEATURES:
The features are
Two knobs and an on off switch is all you need.
EASE OF USE:
The manual is not very helpfull, it should have some suggested settings for those that don't know what this pedal is about.
VALUE:
If you know what this pedal is, and have a use for it in the style music you play, it is a great value, for what you get.
SOUND:
Although the sounds you can get out of this are diverse, they are very limited to certain music styles. It does not play well with other pedals, especially modulation effects.
