A killer little boxI'd been debating whether or not to buy one of these for at least a year now when I finally ordered it. I was impressed with the simulation on the aphex website (which you should check out if you're considering one of these) and was fed up with the thin-ish tone I've been getting from my little pignose hog 30 amplifier. This pedal sure beefed up my tone considerably. I plugged it in for my next door neighbor to hear and we both agreed it could make that 8" speaker sound like a 15" speaker! That box is such a lifesaver since I couldn't keep my 2x8 1x15 amp in my dorm. This is a must have for any bassist seeking rich tone.
