I've been keen to hear one for a while- how did it sound at low gain settings? Does it do subtle? Lop off much of the low end?

I use it mostly to;

a) put chime in a clean Strat going into a Laney LC50, and
b) put delicious overtones into a dirty channel. Cdog's P90 encrusted PRS into TonymcBony's amp from heaven through the Amp50 was absolutely delicious. I have never noticed any parts of the tone dropping off at all - in fact the complete opposite.

It definitely added a touch of sparkle compared to the bypassed tone, sounded really nice.
We should have tried Tony's Dot thru it, would make those covered PAFs twinkle I reckon
