Ever wanted that "brown sound" from a pedal?

    Is it common for reverb to even be a function of this sort of pedal? Wouldn't most guitarists, or in ELVIS' case, guitar players, () prefer to work with their amps reverb?

      It seems the brown control is a phaser circuit and you can hear some phasing in the demos...

      Another complaint is that the gain isn't really variable but more on or off...

      There are plenty of good reviews though and the reverb gets high marks across the board...

      I saw one went recently for $103 on eBay which is very reasonable...


      It's still there.

      I very nearly bought it, looks like it's going to be close to 3 times that new here.

        A Chinese made Joyo over-drive. It sounds like a sex toy to me.

          This drives me nuts. Could there really be a difference in sound worth paying an additional $50 for?? Who gives a crap about the paint job of a little metal box meant for stomping on??

            On te EVH one, the little white switch changes it the the eqivalent of the orange cursive model...so isn;t it like buying both versions of the orange one? Almost a deal from that persepective

              Check out the Carl Martin Plexitone (2012). Simply the best brown sound pedal on earth.

                I tried the Mad Professor 1...didn't work at all for me. Maybe if you had a really clean amp it would work? ''

                  I got the MXR 5150 and Bogner LaGrange pedals for Christmas. The 5150 pedal is great. Sounds very close to the amp. The LaGrange is cool. It has a variac switch and you can make it act like an old Marshall being ran at low voltage.
