Here’s what everybody said about their picks: Nicholas: “Great sounding ultra- controllable distortion/OD/fuzz thing. Maximum value!” Eric: “Like the Boiling Point, every note in a chord pops when played through the Baby Blues. The best low-gainer I’ve played.” Yoel: “It’s all the boutique cleans and dirties you could want, plus it’s perfect for battering the preamp of more highheadroom amps.” David: “Another bizarre fuzz pedal whose tremolo settings can make weird bird and animal calls. I mean, why not?” Ian: “Safe/boring choice maybe, but if I’m picking an overdrive, this one just works for me.” ToneReport.com 39
