Tube Pilot Overdrive : Valve Pedal - Great Sound

This is a nice pedal - one of the best I've used, and I've used all the classics (Tube Screamers, Boss Blues Driver, Boss OD1, OCD, RATs, Catalinbreads, Mesa Boogies etc etc).

There's no point using it with a non valve amp - unless you've get a very clean Fender - it won't sing. I've tried it with an AC30, a Blues Junior and a '57 Champ. It doesn't improve the Champ but then not much can. It goes well with the AC30.

But with the Blues Junior it's fantastic and the best sound I can get out of it is a very unusual spluttery overdrive (overdriving the Blues Junior a bit too). Yes it does nice low gain stuff, yes you can crank it up (higher than I would use) but the splutter is brilliant and the reason I will keep it long term.

Also, it's about the best value seriously good overdrive there is. It is quiet, very little hum, well built, feels solid and the pots are nice to turn. It only really does one sound but it does it very well.

It eats power and doesn't take batteries so make sure your power supply can cope if you have lots of pedals.

Definitely have a go! You haven't much to lose and a lot to gain.
