Artec SE-DDB Duo Drive Blender

The pedal is fairly essy to use, but hard to adjust the small 'crunch & 'heavy' control knobs because of their location. The manual is of little help.

I used an O.L.P. MM-1 guitar with Seymour Duncan pups w coil splitters (sh-2 jazz at neck & sh-4 JB trembucker at bridge). The amp was a Crate GX130C 65watt x 2 stereo s.s. 2x12 combo. The pedal was quite noisey, alot of hiss. I did find the 2 distortions to be more bluesy than metal-sounding. I got a couple of decent sounds by combining the 2 distortions.

It is well-made, all metal. I used it on 2 gigs w/o any drama.

n/a. Not needed. The seller Dragonfly (Steve), answers his email. Steve did do an exchange for me, so he is cooperative.

I play 60's-80's classic rock. This pedal really does not suit me; I am going to sell it on ebay, too noisey..

really easy to use. 4 knobs. Level, Tone, Crunch and Heavy. Was up an running with killer tone in a minute with this thing. Love it!

AMAZING. This is like a Tube Screamer on steroids! You can blend overdrive AND distortion TOGETHER with this pedal (that's why it's called a Due Drive BLENDER pedal). Everything All in one neat little box. You can use it as a stand alone overdrive/distortion in front of a clean amp, or turn down the gain and use in front of a dirty amp for a tube screamer set up. I can't tell you how much i love this pedal. Artec is still sort of an "underground" unknown brand, but that just makes it cooler for me. They make some great pedals.

Built like a Cadillac. Tough old school look to it. solid metal parts and case. It's also true bypass and 100% analog. SWEET.

Never had a need to contact customer service. I'm a big boy and can take care of myself, hehehe

true bypass, old school analog with modern twist. this is the best pedal for overdrive AND distortion. From AC/DC rock to Cannibal Corpse death metal, this pedal can do it.
