NEW REVIEW - FUZZY

Ok...this is the first pedal i have ever bought and is the best one i have ever played...it sounds awesome and it even comes with a little manual with pre-set dials on how to make it sound cool. Also, it comes with blank little fill-ins so you won't forget how you adjusted the knobs yourself. If you're thinking of how it sounds, the best way i can describe it is the bassline from Tool's Forty-Six and 2

Perfect for the metal bassist

The ODB-3 bass overdrive pedal gives you the perfect cruchy tone that metal music demands. I use it with an Ibanez Soundgear through a 15 watt Fender Rumble amp. It sounds tremendous, even through the mediocre amp. I worried about losing some of the low tone with the pedal, but it handles it fantastically. In fact, it emphasizes the lows for an extremely crunchy overdriven tone. The pedal comes with two separate knobs for boosting or cutting both the low and high tones. I find that mixing them gave me the exact heavy metal sound I was looking for. It also has a dry/overdrive knob to set how much overdriven sound you want; and a gain knob to set the intensity of the overdrive. I find that if you set the gain, low, and high knobs to maximum, and the dry/overdrive knob to completely dry, the unit acts as an all around boost with no overdrive. The manual comes with some presets that are helpful in getting you started, but the real value of the pedal comes from your experimentation. I would very highly recommend this pedal to anyone looking for a crunchy, hardcore tone.

This thing rocks my socks!

As said by other reviewers, great pedal if that's the sound you're going for. Sounds awesome with my fender p-bass and ampeg setup, but sounds too 'synth-like' with my gibson ripper. Before buying this product, I reccomend playing it at the store with the same bass you own (hoping it's hanging up on the wall) and the same amp you have at the same settings, because it sounds different with every bass/amp setup. Overall, great sound.

This is the essential pedal for any first-timer

This was the first pedal I bought about six years ago, and it hasn't let me down once. I've been to 16 states and two countries with it. It is the American Express card of effects pedals; don't leave home without it.

BOSS OD Pedal

I just bought this thing a week ago and it sounds awesome! It has so many different sounds from slight distortion to a crunchy growl. Great for metal and heavy rock. But when you get it make sure to get a new 9-volt cause the one it comes is basicaly dead, or an adaptor. Otherwise your set to rock! !,,!
