Re: Griffin Super Drive/E906 mic test
I prefer the tone of the amp without it, to be honest. The pedal sounded a bit congested in the midrange and took the bite out of the amp, even with the added gain. I tend to like pedals that add bite like the SD-1 or Klones.
Not saying it's a bad pedal, just not my thing. Playing is killer as usual though

I actually thought the pedal made it sound like early Mastodon. I dig it! But the core amp tone is amazing too!
