    Cannot get enough of Sir Nick. And I’m so jealous. Dude gets to make funny, informative and addicting videos playing guitars and pedals and all things rock. And gets paid for it. Dude you’re stealing money. Good for you! Thanks for all the great Sweetwater videos!!!
    Oh yeah, that pedal sounds great. Have to get one someday.

  • @Espresso101

    It's like it has this HM2-ish/Marshall blend thing going. If anything i hear more 80s thrash metal tones (Marshall) than i do HM2. I like it, it doesn't sound like just another distortion pedal. I'm all about it.

    I must have missed the part where it sounds like a dimed hm2. I would get this as a first dist pedal due to the variety of dist textures, but I would get a Behringer hm2 if I didn't have an original hm2 and wanted that sound. The only way to settle the question is a-b through a switcher. PS I'm a huge ehx fan, annnd, the ehx people make the best demos anyway. The upside is that I bought all 3 of my ehx pedals from sweetwater, and nick still has the best video with the satchel interview

    I honestly feel like I’m taking crazy pills that people think this sounds good and/or anything like an HM-2.
    I think it sounds pretty bad and if you want an HM-2 you’d be better off with a LWA/Void, Northern Mauler, Dunn, Waza HM-2, even the Behringer pink thing or the TC Eyemaster and lots of others I didn’t name. This thing is baffling.
