Fit/finish: It looks like something you'd get in some dystopian soviet inspired scifi novel, "overdrive number 3". Which I kind of like. Build quality is great, nothing is loose or wobbly.
I've had this for a year or so, originally I got it for low gain crunch, which it is very nice for.
Sound for metal:
So, I thought I'd try how well it works as a TS style boost (it's essentially a tweaked TS circuit, a clone of the HAO Rumble MOD). It is pretty transparent with the volume high and tone low. It doesn't have the mid hump of the TS, it more of shapes everything more cohesive.
Here's a video of my favorite settings for boosting a 6505. You can get some very nice clean boost tones, but also sort of fuzzy/HM2 vein tones. Nothing as drastic as the HM2 though, but pretty nasty nonetheless.
