AZOR Compressor Guitar Effect Pedal Ultimate Comp Pedal Compression Effect Pure Analog for Electric Guitar and Bass True Bypass

This is a clone of the famous "Metal Zone" pedal. The Azor AP 321 aims at one thing and it accomplishes it spectacularly: full blown heavy metal distortion. I've lined this up with several of my other distortion pedals, such as the Tube Screamer, and this pedal far exceeds them in terms of distortion level and bass boost. In fact, when the distortion control is on its highest, it is probably more than the most hard core heavy metal guitarist would want. The extreme/classic toggle switch changes the character of the pedal completely, to the point that it's almost like a two in one. I have several Azor pedals and the construction quality and sound on all are outstanding. This is no exception.

So .. It's a Fuzz pedal .. and I like it .. I saw a review from 60cyclehum .. He didn't rate it highly .. but it was the sound I was looking for ... so I bought one ... and it doesn't sound exactly like the one reviewed on the tippy tappy ... but .. im not surprized as its so cheap ? .. built ok .. not a versatile pedal .. does one sound well.. I'm pleased ... but I wanted something very specific... so .. make your own mid up!

$35.90 cnd gets you a great silicon fuzz face clone that works as expected (wonderfully) it must be first in your FX chain, cleans up nicely with vol on guitar, my only complaint, is the fuzz knob at 10 sounds a bit off, but at 9.9 it's perfect. :)

Wow this mini pedal sounds so good! It feels solid even if its tiny. Lot of power and volume range. Can compete to any big brands. I'm so satisfied that I will order a reverb from the same company. Tried on a Fender Telecaster 50s Vintera.

I've gotten a few of these Azor pedals and so far all the ones I've tried at least do what they're advertised for and blend pretty well with my other higher cost pedals. While they may be limited in controls compared to many of the boutique pedals they're more than good enough to give you some of the tasty essential sounds you can create and use alone or on a pedalboard. They're very well built and withstand being taken on the road for short or long ventures. For the cost AND the sound quality I'd definitely recommend an Azor pedal before you go laying down some hard earned cash only to find out you invested in a pedal you may not like or doesn't suite your taste or style of playing. You can get good solid basic brands like Boss Pedals that have been well established for years but even then that's still going to run you about $100+ used by the time you add in shipping costs (or higher). These hit all the basic check marks and even exceed the list in some cases. These do have somewhat limited functions but it's more than enough for you to get a idea of what that certain pedal type is capable of and you may wind up just liking them period?
