Ease of Use
:
10
With only three controls -- volume, tone, and drive -- this pedal is quite easy to use. Just by starting with all three controls at "noon" gives a good sound. It only gets better as you tweak.
Sound Quality
:
9
This is a truly unique sounding distortion pedal. It actually feels like the distortion is built in to your amp, as opposed to just layered on. The best way I can think of to describe the tone of this pedal is "bouncy" -- the notes just seem to bloom when hit. The high and low end of the sound is very rich. According to Lee, this is due to the pedal's design of not lopping off these frequencies inside the pedal for processing. If you want ballsy bass combined with cutting top end, look no further. Finally, the distortion from this pedal is very well defined -- you can hear all the notes in your chords.
Reliability

The pedal seems very well made and reliable. If it ever needs fixing, Lee will have to do it, given that the circuitry is encased in a "cocoon-like" pouch, with wires coming out of it.
