It was supposed to be a clone of the Blues Driver. Extremely low gain, useless with single coils, barely noticeable with humbuckers.

Most disappointing pedal ever. Not much volume and sounded like a broken chainsaw.
I imagine it could have worked in parallel with the unboosted sound, perhaps via a boss ls2, but it seemed crazy to buy that just to make a crappy £20 flimsy pedal sound usable

It wobbled a lot.
My playing guitar certainly is.
Often, for me anyway, part of the fun of some pedals is finding out how to get a good sound out of them.
I never really found a good use for this circuit though. Think I got some OK sounds boosting fuzz in a narsty kind of way.
EHX probably made a few quid out of it right enough.
Actually it did achieve the tone of the first two bars of Green Day's American Idiot. Which is not particularly useful, but that was literally it

Did nothing but kill the tone, a genuine sex toy used as a slide would be more useful than that pointless lump of crap.
