One thing that surprised me was how it DIDN'T work well at all with my amp's overdrive in a solo setting. As can be expected it rips out a good chunk of the bottom end when it goes into a drive channel, and by nature the sound gets quite choked up on itself.
On the other hand, going into the clean channel was absolutely sublime - it's rough and aggressive and certainly has a very specific character. The sustain was great and diming all of the controls was still a lovely warm sound. Putting my klone infront gave it alot more bottom end (but the same character when applied to the drive channel, for better or worse)
It was only when I came to render this to MP3 I realised I had my delay on, but hopefully you can get an idea of a tonal character:
All dials at noon 0:00-0:25
Turbo mode engaged 0:25 to 00:50 (massive spike in volume)
Into the dirty channel on my amp 1:08 to 1:90
All knobs dimed for just sodding around 1:19 to end

ENO Myomorpha is the same pedal, but even cheaper, isn't it?
FWIW, a RAT is probably a good option if you're thinking about having a go at DIY. Not too complicated, open to lots of mods, and you get a classic dirt pedal. BYOC and Fuzzdog both have kits for RATs with diode switching.
