this stuff is great

2 Knobs- level and distortion (can't get much easier)

I have it hooked up through a Fender American Standard P-Bass(not that usual) and i play grunge rock. This pedal has the greastest sound i've ever used. it sounds great trough a bass and even better through a guitar

It's good for gigging if you dont like go crazy and stomp on it, its pretty dependable, ive had it for 2 months and ive had no problems

never dealt w/ them

I play rock, its great through a BASS, its worth every cent. its better than most of those $100 ones. PLay great w/ my band im sticken to Dano effects as long as i use them

Dead simple. Level = how loud. Distortion = how buzzy/ fuzzy. On/ off footswitch. That's it.

Just f'n lovely! I play electric violin in a celtic band, and lemme tell you, people would request AC/DC or something and almost mess themselves when I kicked this thing in and started riffin' Thunderstruck on the violin. Great "Smoke on the Water" sounds. Hendrix too! Can cause distortion in your signal when you're not using it but it's plugged in though.

I took it out of my pedalboard because mine had too many quirky problems. The AC adaptor imput was wonky and because I only use adaptors, no batteries, it did me very little good. The input jacks have screwed up a little as well.

Sounded great. Easy to use. Quirky switches. I might get another, though I'll try it out first.

Only two knobs, level and distortion, pretty self explanatory...

I've been using this pedal with a Fender Fat Strat (bridge humbucker) running into my little Peavey Transtube practice amp. I like the sound of this pedal alot, I bought it looking for a replacement for my DOD Classic Tube. It serves that purpose pretty well, it has just a bit more gain than the DOD did. I can get several different distortion sounds out of this, which is more than I expected for the price. The sound is hard to accurately describe, sort of like a combination of "Sunshine of your Love" Cream sound and Meat Puppets "To High to Die" album sound. Would work great for heavier classic rock, modern "alternative", and some of the more agressive brit-pop. It's a little noisy with the distorion set past the 3 O'clock postition, but no more than would be normal for a pedal with this much gain. The mids and highs sound great with this pedal, but the low end it a little to muddy and tends to mix together, but this makes for some real crunchy compressed chording.

It's made of plastic and rather small, but it seems to be of good quality. I would depend on it, I'm not as rough with my pedals as alot of people are. Wouldn't think twice about gigging without a backup, just don't drop an amp on it or anything. Haven't had any problems with it so far. (a few weeks of heavy use)

Haven't needed it yet...

I play alot of blues and harder rock. I really like an older vintage sound, and this pedal works for me. You won't get a Stevie Ray sound of it, nor will you get metal sound, but this pedal isn't intended for that. I've been playing roughly 10 years. My main guitar is my hot rodded Fender Strat, I play through a variety of amps, too many to list here... If it was stolen, I certainly buy another. Like I said earlier, I bought this to replace my DOD Classic Tube which got fried, and the two are pretty similar, with the T-Bone being a good bit cheaper, and certainly easier to find... It would be nice if it had some kind of tone or EQ control, but for the money i'm extremely pleased with it.

It is pretty easy to use, due to the fact it only has two knobs(level and distortion). I dont know about the manual, but i dont think they even have manuals as i didnt get one with my Hash Browns.

The only way to get a decent sound out of this thing is to leave the distortion set at 12 o clock or less. This thing sounds like utter crap if you turn down the level and crank the distortion, like i do with my smashbox. I personally dont like the sound of this pedal. I borrowed it from a friend and i cant wait to give it back. The distortion is so bad its unbelievable. I guess you could play some decent Black Sabbath with this. thats about it.

So far i have had no problems with a Danelectro pedal so it should be pretty reliable as long as you don't throw it or wear cleats when you step on it.

I play music this pedal cant. I tried playing all kinds of genres of music with this(grunge, punk, AC/DC) and it doesnt cut it. I hate looking at this pedal and thinking, "what a piece of shit. No wonder its pink." Dont get this unless you play 60's and 70's rock and only that. By the way, dont play this while wearing headphones. You will get a headache that will last for hours.

This pedal is simple and fun to use. It can't get any easier. The T-Bone has 2 knobs(distortion and level(volume)and of course it has an on/off button. It doesn't come with a manual because it isn't rocket science.

It has a good sound and nice tone. It isn't noisy and I don't get too much feedback. I have the distortion cranked all the way and the level in between 8 and 9 o'clock.I actually think in sounds great. I play all rock music. It sounds great with punk and grunge like Green Day,Nirvana,Everclear,Offspring,Eve6,Blink182,Lit,Weezer and a lot more. It also sounds good playing Black Sabbath,Aerosmith and older bands.I am going to have to give it a 10 because I love the sound.

I could definitely depend on this pedal. I'd use this pedal for a gig. I am going to buy the Danelectro Pedal Board. If I was doing a gig I wouldn't need a back up pedal with the pedal board. I wouldn't have to worry about the battery running down because I have ac adaptors. Even if it did fail in a show I have my Pastrami Overdrive for Back Up.

I haven't dealt with the company. But, the first one i bought had a broken screw at the bottom where you open it to put in the battery. The music store replaced it.

I play rock. I think this will do good for a lot of rock music. The price is great also! If it were stolen I would catch the guy and beat him up. If he got away I would go buy another one. The thing I love the most is how easy it is to use and the sound it puts out

2 knobs and a button. simple

using a hohner rockwood rp200 (les paul copy) into a cry baby then into a small practise amp. Brilliant sound for the music i play (oasis, blur - indie stuff like that).

Had it for about a month then the button stopped working. Took it back to the shop and still waiting for a replacement or to hear about what was wrong with it

not had to deal with the company - yet

Suits any indie/britpop player who wants a bit of distortion in their set. A bit weak so care is needed not to stamp on the pedal cos it may break. Been playing for 3 years and it was my first "stomp" box type effect. I owned a zoom gfx-707 b4 and didn't like it cos it wasn't versatile enough.
If it were stolen, I'd definitely get another - very cheap!
Just wish it were metal rather than plastic cos then it may be a bit stronger!

Easy to use, just step on it

This thing sucks all the tone out of all my amps, its loud, trashy, and you cant get cruch just a try hard metal distortion

Lucky they dont call this thing a stompbox cause if you stomped on it shatter into about 1000 pieces. They have crappy little plastic coverings and tiny pot metal knobs. Id never use this at a gig coz i hate the sound and id probably break on the first song

Never had to deal with them

I play an old yamaha through a cry baby then into a 50 watt laney ive been playin for about 4 years and i hate this pedal. If it were stolen id thank the guy. The larger fab tone by danelectro is about a million times better than this. DONT BUY IT

EZ-2-use. Level, distortion and a foot switch. Opening the battery compartment is a pain, but not a problem if you use the external battery adapter.

I'm using my Am. Std. Strat into my new Dano mini pedal setup, which utilizes the pedal board w/power supply & cables.

The setup is: STRAT(S) > PASTRAMI OD > T-BONE DISTORTION > HASH BROWN FLANGER > DANO MINI TUNER > HOME BREW JUNK YARD DOG TUBE AMP. (http://home.earthlink.net/~narf1/jyd.htm)

The T-Bone level control is set to 10 o'clock and the distortion is set at 3 o'clock to 5 o'clock. This pedal sounds best using the rear pickup, or rear 2, only. It is fat, squawky and rich in harmonics. Using the front pickups, the sound is very violin like. (Sounds like a triangle wave and low frequencies are predominate.)

This pedal is great for solos! It sounds better than my MIJ Boss DS-1, which it has replaced.

In bypass mode, there is no noise or coloration of the original signal. It is very transparent and does not load down the guitar like my old MIJ Boss DS-1.

Used it last weekend for 3 Praise and Worship services - no backup. It worked great. The plastic case and pedal board worried me. I was concerned that some static electricity could be generated, causing the effects to trigger on & off or make static in my amp. There was no static problem. I used it without a backup.

I emailed them and never heard back. The pedal comes with a warranty card, which is good for 1 year.

I play Praise & Worship music. This is a great pedal for solos. On the Hillsongs tune, "Can't Stop Talkin'" the T-Bone sounded excellent!! The Bone has the Tone. Harmionics were there when I needed them and the Stratocaster's character shines thru. Very riff-y pedal!

I've been playing guitar for 36 years and my current rig is listed above. It is a high gain pedal and has hiss, when engaged. Since this is an imperfect world, all distortion pedal have this noise "feature."

The pedal has LOTS of cool character. The Guitar Player magazine description is true; "It is aggressive and has plenty of low end mass. It boasts ridiculous amounts of gain... fat distortion... yet for all the smooth compression, the tones retain their transient edge."

2 knobs, level and distortion, nuff said

Sounds great with my hash browns and eq after it. An eq gives you more range of distortions from this neat lil' box. Turn it up to full, you may get a little hum, but it ROCKS. Smells Like Teen Spirit sounds good with this pedal. You can light distortion too.

I'd gig with this, first I'd check how much hum I'd get though. Only got it yesterday.

I play classic/hard rock, good for both. I recomend you use an eq with this, I use the Fish and Chips, it makes it so much better. Good price, good pedal.
