Anyone else used one of these?

This is the best overdrive pedal I've heard in a long time. Has anyone else used one?

Delta Lab Effects Pedals

I'll try to put together some samples in a video or something so you guys can hear it, but this little pedal is amazing.

I've been getting some of those sweet, super smooth overdrive sounds out of it. I've got it in one of the loops in my G-System so I can switch it on with either the clean channel or the overdrive channel. It sounds the best with the clean channel on my Uberschall. Sounds very close to the solo sound at the end of "Through Her Eyes" on Dream Theater's "Scenes From a Memory" album.

I've tried one of the Rock Distortion pedals. I would up sending it back. Was very fuzzy and noisy. I could have just gotten a bum pedal though.

I have noticed that the pedal is a bit noisy when I use it with the lead channel on my amp and it adds a little hum to the clean channel, but no more than any other overdrive or distortion pedal. Glad I have a Decimator Prorack G to squash all that noise

Isn't the TD1 a tube screamer clone? I've been wanting a TS and it seems like a good, price sensible option.

It is supposed to be a TS clone, but I like it better than the current TS9 or TS808. A buddy of mine had a Keely modded TS until he got this pedal. Now he swears by it as his main OD pedal. That's what sparked me to try it. So far it's been worth its weight in gold. It sounds fantastic and isn't made of cheap plastic. I don't have any worries about it holding up since it's in my rack, but it feels very solid. Best $50 I've spent on a pedal...ever.

Really cheap. Do you know where these pedals are made ?
If I remember well Delta Lab was producing some gears a few years ago (the Effectron). Is it the same company or just guys who bought the brand name ?
Anyway, thanks for the link

It's a Guitar Center brand (they purchased the Trademarks). I'm not sure where they're made, but my guess would be China. I'll look at the manual/box when I get home.
