From the low price, you may not think it's going to be the best distortion pedal in the world, but unless you have high end equipment, you're not going to notice any lack of sound quality. The overdrive side is particularly good, so for blues and rock it's excellent. I wasn't quite as impressed with the distortion side, which is why it looses a star, but you can blend the two together, and fine tune with the gain knob, and get some decent tones. If you want something more metal I'd probably suggest it's sister (or is it brother?) pedal, the Heavy Distortion HD 3000 - but for 2-pedals-in-one versatility, this OD300 is awesome value. P.S. If you do buy one, it runs on a 9v battery, but if you want to plug it in, ANY 9 volt adapter will do - don't buy a special one. Or you can buy a daisy chain extension for any 9 volt adapter you already have, and plug in several pedals to the same power supply. The current draw is tiny, and it will just take what it needs - that's how devices work - so don't worry about having a lot of mA (milliamps) - amazingly enough it's having too little current that's damaging, not having too much!Read full review

I had a Jackhammer pedal but found it too savage and really hard to control--4 double knobs--8 controls to get a very harsh sound--The pedal harks back to the 70's in its simplicity!! I installed it on a Friday and gigged on the Saturday-- with no problems!! For the price--excellent value. Construction is slightly compromised due to the price, but I don't jump on my pedals so not a problem!!

Pretty good for the money. However, it is made of plastic so might not last to long, but we'll see. Controls give a wide range of sounds and distortion is good. To round up, for the money it's good and if it last then brilliant.

Good price. As suggested it covers overdrive and distortion very adequately in my opinion for home use.

Apart from being a plastic body the pedal does what its supposed to
