A very musical overdrive pedal; beautifully articulate

In my opinion, the Les Lius is a very special pedal. I had previously owned the Catalinbread Formula 55, which I thought was good, but I always felt there wasnât quite enough top-end. I also felt it added mids, making my Brownface Deluxe clone feel congested in the mid-range. By contrast, the Les Lius is beautifully articulate, with a transparent EQ; it delivers sparkle & chime, with the perfect amount of grit. Just like a real high-quality tweed amp, the Les Lius rewards dynamic picking; whether using a plectrum or fingerpicking, it is fantastically nuanced. Soft Fingerpicking an arpeggio yields a wonderfully eloquent clarity, with tube-like artefactsâ¦ and when you dig-in, all the grit and power you want is there, unequivocally. It behaves just like a tweed ampâ¦ just beautiful. It really engenders expressive playing. It is everything I was hoping forâ¦ and more. I feel lucky and proud to own one. A very musical pedal. It went straight on my board without any hesitation. Highly recommended. Get one while you can.
