....Just an evil, EVIL fuzz. Turns anything
you run though it into a harsh, grating
wall-o-sound. I've owned a couple of
the originals over the years, and this
nails the sound exactly (except that
there's no boost mode on the JR model).
Lately, I've taken to running it from a 18V
power supply, which seems to further
boost both the lower frequencies and
upper harmonics. The only pedal that
sounds great with my noise and bass
setups.

my originals)
Bad Points: -small volume dip on battery power
