Ease of Use : 10
You just have to push the 4 plastic button

Sound Quality : 1
you can never get your favorite sound with it. The delay, and distortion is very bad.

Reliability : 2

I play pop, gospel and jazz for about 3 years, but this things is bad even for a beginer like me. I have compare it with my friends Zoom 505 and it's better than this toy.

Four knobs, LEVEL, DIST, LO, HI. Self-Explanatory. Easy to use.

Sound Quality : 5
I borrowed this pedal from a friend. He wanted this pedal to be soldered but he didn't have a solder. I used a Fernandes HB guitar with Squier 15w amp. Its' a pretty good distortion pedal, but not cranked up enough for Metal and not subtle for mild overdrive. It's somewhere in-between. The thing has a cheap sound, the reason I would say would be the poor sustain. The middle range is also poor. The LO and HI are not sensitive until it goes past 5, where they can be boosted tremendously. But the result was an ugly sound. I would use this maybe as a booster, but not my primary distortion pedal. I play Red Hot Chili Peppers, 311, Rage Against the Machine, Ozzy Osbourne, etc.

Reliability : 5
I wouldn't depend so much on this thing. It's made of plastic. The knobs can be removed just by pulling them.

Customer Support : No Opinion
I haven't dealt with the company, but I think they've retired from making effects?? I don't see anything about effects on their homepage.

Overall Rating : 5
I wouldn't use this for a setup requiring creamy overdrive or hard distortion. Maybe for grungy distortion. But there are better pedals for this type of distortion, and I would definitely look for others. One thing, this thing is not made to endure a 100ft fall, and the plastic case makes it very light and mobile. It would be good to carry around.

I use it with a dean markley amp, with an odessa guiar with 3 single coil pick-ups

Reliability : 6
superb reliability, batterys last forever and if i had a gig i would use it without backup

Overall Rating : No Opinion
my style would be grunge/punk it's a great pedal overall good for grunge and punk use, not so much for heavy metal but it rips.
