the More Gary by DrNo Effects

So, I own this fine looking stompbox. It's an overdrive, enabling me to get all the classic blues-sounds I can dream off.

Roel, the builder, claims/promises "From Stevie Ray Vaugn's super defined Stratocaster twang to Jeff Beck's dramatic Gibson scream, guess what kind of stompboxes made those sounds? Well, let me tell you, if it wasn't something extremely similar to the "More Gary" I'll eat my record collection!"
He'll never eat that record collection. This pedal does it all. Combined with your tube amp it'll offer you all the blues feeling you can think of.

Having said that, by now 90% of all you blues, rythm & blues and rock players know they need this pedal.
But I tried it with my "acoustic" blues setup as well. A resonator guitar, equipped with a Flatbucker pickup, through a Hughes & Kettner Red Box straight into the PA. (and supporting rythm with a Schaller stompbox Bass pedal, through an Octave pedal into the PA.)
Now here's where I really was in for a surprise! From delicate blues-ballads to growling slide songs, this pedal really adds loads of character to my music. Even at low-volume it delivers it's tones.

This must be the ultimate blues overdrive pedal. All the classic electric blues tones, surplussed with unlimited creative opportunities enabling us to find our own sound.
What else do you want?

The Cons?
I think I saw some well designed graphic and serialnumber information on the bottom of this pedal, right before I stuck the Velcro over it. What a pity!
Seriously, this pedal comes neatly boxed with some "case candy" like brochures, stickers and even nice patch. Roel gives his products all the attention they deserve, and more.
