BE-OD : Friedman BE-OD

I bought this after seeing the Pete Thorn YouTube demo videos- didn't even try one live before purchasing! I already own a couple of Boogie heads, and a profusion of Wampler pedals. They are all fantastic. However, I have to say, this has more than earned its place on the board ? it can do just a bit of hair on the note through to full throttle tear your head off. However, I was sold when I dialled in a beautiful 'One of these nights' Felder type tone- on my Strat. It is built like a brick ? though be warned, it doesn't take a battery, so factor that in to your power supply. Thoroughly thoroughly recommended ? in the overpopulated world of distortion pedals, that black and gold lineage reeks class!

Pros: tone build feel

Cons: maybe useful to have the facility to power it by battery for small gigs
