This little box has enhanced the sonic qualities of my tracks. Although the MuRF is analog, it is fairly clean sounding, some color is added to the tracks, but the color that is added is not over the top or overly ambitious. Excellent piece of equipment, would recommended to all the “lap-toppers” out there…excellent way to add some “weight” to your tracks.

Even if you aren’t using the filters, just running a sound through the MuRF while it is in ‘Dry’ mode will do wonders!

My only complaint is that it is a bit noisy, not much…

The George Dennis GD100 Wizard Distortion guitar pedal offers a switchable combination of distortion effects (including metal distortion) and volume control. Sort of a useful two in one package that lets you get a little more control on the fly. If you like to tweak things as you go (maybe you’re an experimental guitarist), this novelty of this pedal is kind of cool. And useful.

The GD100 has noise-free optical control for smooth effects changes. The tone is good but didn’t really knock me out until I started putting eq and other overdrive on it. I got a really good sound when I used it, so now it’s really in the toybox. Depending on the gig, I don’t bring it out much, but if you’re the kind of guitarist that is innovative on stage, then this might be worth checking out.

A lot of tone shaping options here in a very small tough enclosure. I like the compact size and the 6 knobs. This most certainly is a METAL pedal and trying to get toned down smooth distortion out of this more than likely will not be possible without running it into another drive pedal. I have a lot of pedals on my board and find that running a Barber LTD Silver after the Fullbore is just what the doctor ordered, this gives me the option of just the Fullboar in its grand and knarly state or when switching on the LTD (tone stacking) smooths it out. I am running the Fullbore with the gain at half way which still gives a lot of raw crunch when used alone but does not send the LTD into clipping when using both together.

Before the Fullbore I owned the Digitech Hardwire Metal pedal and the Electro Harmonics Metal Muff. I actually used the Muff for a couple of years but when I saw the size and tonal capabilities of the Fullbore I had to switch over. I am running my pedalboard into a GenzBenz El’Diablo combo (tube amp.) I don’t need a lot of time when auditioning new pedals for my board, I know what I want to hear.

I lean more towards smoother overdrives and distortions but I also knew That to have a complete pedalboald I had to fill the tonal space on the extream end of things. I can’t imagine anyone needing any other metal pedal than the Fullbore but then again it comes down to how it incorporates into your rig and the tones you are trying to attain. This one tonally is a 10 for me. Now if I could just get MXR to build me a low gain pedal with the 6 knobs and switching options there would be not much left to be desired.

I bought this pedal the day it came out. I am a long time fan of the big muff sound. The tone control on this new one seems slightly more even and responsive, could be just my experience with older ones, but it’s a good thing.

Smaller than it looks, so it fits easily among others. Solid build, no pops, etc. As claimed, does old school muff, with a switch to drop out the tone control. This creates an immediate signifigant increase in overall volume/perceived gain. Maybe they should have called it a “Hulk” switch…transforms the old muff into a raging wall of raw fuzz distortion beast, then your amp eq does the rest. The “tone wicker” is much more subtle, adds brightness and presence/trims out the attack mud that originals had at bass tone settings, but retains that low end presence/grind. Makes finding that sweet spot much easier. Produces some strange ultra raspy fuzz at odd settings, not ugly, just bizzaro cool. This isn’t like a Tube Driver as much as its like a gutsy vintage distortion.

I really can’t find a down side with the tones twekaed out so far. For fans of the big muff sound, punk/grunge/rock/heavy music in general this is a great pedal to own. I love mine so far.

I bought this wah because of the price. I have owned a Crybaby aand a Vox V847 in the past. This new Vox wah blew me away right out of the box. The tone was incredible and a bit darker than my other wahs which was great for rhythm playing. It really sounds classic and wonderful with my strat.

Then again, you can’t go wrong with Vox.  I’m such a Vox fan these days.  It’s kind of my thing, but turns out it’s a lot of people’s secret tone company.

The size is the key on this guy.  If you want a fully featured looper with loads of options look at different products that cost at least twice as much and take up at least four times the space. If you do minimal looping and just want to stack things on top to set up for some freestyle soloing this is your guy.

I highly recommend using an expression pedal for stop/tap tempo. It really makes it more simple to do some basic things. I actually built my tap tempo switch right into the pedal so it doesn’t take up any extra space on my pedalboard.

The pedal is really as easy to use as a looper can get. It’s a cakewalk to start laying down grooves that you can solo over.

The one thing that could really be improved for a simple looper like this would be the ability to go backwards in the pre-recorded phrases using an external switch. You can only go one direction right now and that’s kind of a drag. Doesn’t bother me too much as I usually just set up a layer and let it sit while I solo over the groove.

Sound quality is decent in front of the amp or in the effects loop. Put it after all of your effects (including delay) or you’ll get undesirable results.

For the money it’s a killer deal. If you want to test the waters of looping this is the way to go.
