Superb piece of equipment that offers a range of sound to enhance that of the acoustic guitar.

Max P. - 27/9/2022

Very happy with the pedal, had its first gig today and stood up well. Some tweaks to the eq and boost level and got a really nice tone out of it, and it behaved well with my other pedals.
