It's lightly used as I bought it for its attractive features that include the dual gain stages and also the separate 'Bass' and 'Treble' controls, however I have to part with it due to finding other pedals that fulfill my needs better with the stuff I'm in to at the moment. This pedal can be either used as a high gain - 'solo' pedal or as an 'always on' type overdrive pedal with the little switch next to the gain knob.

Lovely buttery smooth. The low gain setting was more amenable to dynamics with volume pot or picking style, however the high gain setting was also not too bad.
