ZVEX Effects Vextron Distortron Guitar Pedal

In my side by side comparison between ZVEX, Wampler PexiDrive, JHS Charlie Brown, this is my pick for the JTM style distortion pedal., The Zvex is the lowest price one, but the most versatile one amount three. Having a extra high gain setting, clean up like an true tube amp and sounds great.

Bought this pedal as a back up to my box of rock, which I love. I went on tour, the box of rock died. Pulled this one out. It doesn't work. The sound of the pedal was clearly compromised. Had a tech look at it. He said it was clearly defective from the time of purchase. I should have tried it before I left because now I am unable to return it. It has been six months. I should not have assumed a small boutique manufacturer would test all thier pedals before they leave the shop. But I did. I won't buy zvex anymore. They won't even repair it without a charge. Shame on you Zvex.

Extremely versatile dirt pedal. Wide range of tones and gain. Low noise. Play a bit of everything with this pedal. Loved my Box of Rock and this is basically the same pedal with a gain boost that gets into metal territory.

Awesome pedal! It has exactly the sound I was expecting for.

Really fun pedal to rock out with. Sounds fantastic into a clean blackface, like a cranked Marshall. Full disclosure, I've never played/cranked a Marshall. I am just comparing to recordings. Pedal build seems very solid. I did receive an orange one instead of maroon and I'm happy for that.
