Mad Professor Super Black Boost/Overdrive

Well, there is something that you can expect…

… but you never know before you try it.

The main reason to buy this kind of things for everyone who loves guitar is to find his “very special” sound. All of us are the same. You can buy a real BF amp and then want to “improve” it’s sound with many different pedals for making it’s sound lets say similar to Marshall. Or you enjoy Marshall, Laney, Vox for a year and then buy this Mad Proff Super black to get Fender-ish crystal clean. Sometimes we do strange things but the target is the same: digging your own lovely sounding notes. This pedal definitely can help you to find out something really different and good.

Love, love, love this pedal!!!

I saw Dave Simpson demo this pedal on his youtube channel and I had to have it! I'm running an Epiphone Les Paul into a Marshall MG30GFX, with this pedal I get so much closer to the Peter Green tone I've been looking for. I own a Mad Professor Forest Green compressor pedal to get Gary Moore-esque sustain and it was my favourite pedal. I've only spent a few hours playing with this Super Black but it's already my new favourite pedal. Love Mad Professor (and Dave Simpson)!

Pros: the tone is awesome, the pedal is sturdy, the included overdrive sounds amazing.

Cons: other than the price, I have not noticed anything with the pedal itself. Information online is misleading, that a 8-16 V DC power supply unit is necessary and available separately. Relax, it does come with a 9V battery installed, you just need a screwdriver to remove the back of the pedal - not really a "con" for me but it might irritate others. I assume the 8-16V DC power supply is only necessary to access greater headroom? It has large feet, which might affect mounting on your pedalboard.
