Ease of Use
:
10
This pedal is very easy to use.
It combines the 60's fuzz sound with a very warm and predictable wah.
You can use either effect alone or combine them together.
There is a separate on off for each effect
There are adjustment on the side for adding just the right amount of fuzz and output to your amp.
Think TWISTED TRANSISTOR by KORN.
Sound Quality
:
9
Plug in your guitar and run it to your amp or effects chain.
Surprisingly, with the fuzz on there is virtually no hissing noise.
Push forward on the foot rocker and rock back and forth while playing to make your guitar go Wah Wah.
There is a switch on the side for choosing lower frequency or higher frequency fuzz. More or less is a Bass/Treble switch.
Reliability
:
10
Made of steel with a rubber cover on the foot rocker.
It's been around since the 60's and still works great. You can bet your ass it will be still working in another 40 years.

Overall Rating

There is little info available for the National version of this pedal. There is more info if you look up Shin-Ei. These 2 brands of pedals are EXACTLY the same thing. Just have a different label on them.
I am a collector and I would highly reccomend this pedal to anyone seeking that 60's tone.
