see the gain knob? GOOD....now turn it DOWN!!!! then play something good

[joemiracle220]

@1952Telecaster the pedal sucks, if i wanted a overdrive there are far better options , my main reason for demoing this pedal is to show ppl that it sucks and they should buy something else, .....i love maxon stuff usually but this is a turd. ...for me anyway

[SuspiriaXP]

Buzzzzzzzzzzz... Too bad it has almost same name as old Maxon/Ibanez SM9 and nothing in common. I'm sorry to say that, but for me, it sucks big time.

[joemiracle220]

@SuspiriaXP i agree, i had high hopes but they were dashed......thought id do a demo of it b4 i sent it back to save ppl the trouble

[strybel]

Mmmm...do you think it's worth $200+ ?How you like it?

[joemiracle220]

@strybel IMO no, 

[ajpeagle]

The Old SM9 was capable of great tones ,as long as you don't EQ it badly .Any distortion pedal can sound bad in the wrong hands .Don't let this terrible demo put you off.

@joemiracle220 Maybe you should first know the diff between an overdrive pedal, and a distortion pedal, before you do vids ragging on other peoples hard work. Just sayin. You can hate the pedal as a "distortion pedal", but dont hack on it if youre looking for an overdrive pedal. Apples/oranges.

haha...this pedal sounds good.

@GibsonRocker1958 take a listen to the Amptweaker Tight Metal. I say that pedal does sound like an amp.

[SchizoidAsylum]

I got the pedal and its awesome. Not suited for ultra high gain but for anything from classic rock to hard rock it rocks and it cleans up nicely with rolling the volume down even with active pickups.

[SchizoidAsylum]

does it require different adaptor for 9 volts and 18 volts? or do you just flip a swithch and it doubles de voltage internally?

Who pissed off the Bees?

[kossistheboss]

Got this pedal, and no disrespect, but I couldn't disagree more. This pedal is great for all kinds of hard rock'/metal goodness. I use if for a Kings X-type sound. The dudes amps sounds flat, obviously adding a pedal to that is going to going to make it sound flat. Also, the mixing of the live mic is really compressing your sound with the lack of master volume hearing your picking attack.

[GibsonRocker1958]

@joemiracle220 I dont see why anyone would demo how bad a distortionpedal for metal sounds... I mean, its obvious... Good tone for metal = good highgain AMP. A pedal cannot recreate the sound of a good highgain amp. Good rack equipment can though, Axe Fx for example...

[catchatubescreamer]

I think you demo'd this pretty well. Thank for posting.

@joemiracle220 The three best overdrive pedals in my opinion are the Seymour Duncan Power Grid,the Digitech Tone Driver and the discontinued Zoom Hyper Lead. I know there are a ton of the out there and I probably tried have of them before purchasing them three.
