It’s more bottom end friendly han a fuzz and will be spot on for those craving a tube like overdrive. with its ease of use (its idiot proof) and the range of tones you can achieve from this little box it’s about time bass players of the world started waffling endlessly about what their own pedal boards, with the M89 Bass Overdrive certainly being the first name on the team sheet.
