DigiTech Bad Monkey Tube Overdrive Pedal Description
The DigiTech Bad Monkey Tube Overdrive Pedal gives your amp a boost right where you need it, sending your signal from clean to smooth, classic overdrive with character and dynamics. Low and High tone controls give you the flexibility to boost or cut the bass and treble frequencies for just the right sound. The Level knob boosts the output level of your signal, and the Gain knob controls the level of overdrive distortion. The Amp output runs into the input of your amplifier and the dedicated Mixer output has a cabinet emulation circuit that lets you run direct into a mixer or recorder when you don't want to lug your amp along.

Can't really beat it for a cheap overdrive/booster. The EQ on the pedal makes it much more versatile than other pedals i.e. a Boss SD-1 (which only has a tone knob). I haven't tried the cabinet emulation thing, really, so I can't comment on that.

It's built solidly. You have to press down a bit hard on the pedal to turn it on compared to Boss pedals, but that doesn't really bother me.

Don't let the brandname fool you, this is a surprisingly good pedal for a great price.
