Feature:
kickin overdrive,sick paint. its enough for me

Quality:
Mine is an original from back in the day and it still rocks. The only thing not perfect with mine is paint is flaking off but i like that used look.

Value:
i got the best deal in the world. Its a collectors item and i got it for $40 i also got a power supply and a free cable with it from the music shop in Milan, and since its vintage if i dont want it I canjust sell it back to the shop and get $40 back whether it works or not

Desirability:
the seasick green paint is sick

Sound:
this thing makes a BIG difference. There is no way to get my peavey amp clean so i just turn down the tone and drive knobs and it boosts my sound giving it a little more kick for that clear but distorted sound for classic rock. just crank it up and its great for punk.

Support:
didnt need it

Overall:
I'm only usin tubescreamers for my distotion needs

Feature:
I can't see many features on the thing, it's just a very good distortion pedal with many clear distortion tones you can select.

Quality:
As crazy as it sounds, I so far dropped it down the stairs and dropped my guitar case on it with the guitar in it so! Yeah...self explanitory isn't it?

Value:
Hey, ya get what ya pay for...Although if that was the case the vintage one would be the best one...lol

Desirability:
It's got sucha ugly green color...it just attracted me I guess?

Sound:
It really hugs the midrange creating a much clearer distortion rather then a much bassier, thicker tone most distortion pedals create.

Support:
didn't need anyones support so I would rate it a 10 because I never had to bother with anyone.

Overall:
Beats my MXR Distortion +.

Features? It's a distortion pedal... ok... LED, 3 knobs, switch. Adapter not included.

Quality:
No problems whatsoever. I use this pedal all the time and it works like a charm. Good battery life, too.

Value:
One of the best sounding pedals out there, so price isn't really an option anyway now is it?

Desirability:
It's green... and it's built very well.

Sound:
Great distortion. Works great for lead or rhythm (especially indie).

Ease of Use:
Are you kidding?

I use two Distortions in my pedal setup, the Big Muff, and the tube screamer, I use the muff for the louder, heavyer songs and the tube screamer for the softor, or groovier songs, the go great together. I also have a variety of other effects. This pedal is a must have.

Quality:
Verry sturdy. Steel made and heavy. Zero problembs yet.

Value:
I bought mine at $100. This is great deal for this product.

Sound:
This pedal compleeted my overall tone! I play through a Mesa F-50 with a Gibson Sg. I play a lot of heavy stuff. When i first got my amp I just coulnt get enough juice out of it. I brought home this pedal nd did an exparament. I put my ap distortion at half, then threw the pedal's overdrive on tp of it. WOW!!! I got a HUGE impovement in my tone. I have tried countless other overdrives, but for what i use them for, this one is best. I love the tone!

Ease of Use:
Easy, like any other stomp box.

Overall:
One ofhe most imortant musical choices ive ever made.

Feature:
three knobs... drive, tone, and level. Cover on bottom clips over battery compartment. AC adapter available. Simple features. does what it needs to do. Dial in a little bite or some hard rocking tones.

Quality:
It's built probably better than a Boss pedal. Feels super solid. Nice heavy duty spring action switching. Never worried about it. Only thing is that after 10 years of knocking around in my gig bag the knobs wiggle slightly. Durability would be a lot better than the newer plastic grey units with the same name.

Value:
Great value.. if you really value tone. Only way for better distortion would be to try a very expensive pedal.

Desirability:
Nice color

Sound:
very nice sounding distortion pedal, probably the best at what it does. I use a Marshall TSL2000 60 watt amp and a Les Paul Classic, and a Big Apple Stratocaster. I own a black muff pi, a boss DS-1, a boss metal zone, and a boss ME-50. This is a pedal I always come back to. The ME-50 gets close to being as good. I play in a gigging hard rock/alternative band (Lost Disciples.com). The pedal is built super tough. Great for blues to hard rock. The distortion on this sounds very natural for a pedal. It's not for super heavy music cuz the gain just doesn't go that high. Great for boosting your amps gain for a real good bite. It is a good booster for leads of any type of music. I love this pedal as part of my arsenal If I lost it, I'd find another. I'm considering using it as one of my main tones. I lets you hear the sound of your guitar without coloring everything too much. You can play it lightly for cleaner sounds or hit the strings hard for more distortion!

Support:
Never needed them

Overall:
would replace it. won't need anything else for it's use in my set up
