    Hey,
    That Arion Tubulator is a crap. It's a $15 distortion, so how much quality can you expect in it. If your Aunt hasn't bought it ask her to get you something else. Maybe a DS1 for $39 if $e$$teritie$ is a concern.

    Hey Alfons, how much have you played the AMT pedals to make a comparison with DS1 and also call it 10 times better.

    By the way, I suggested DS1 because it's $39 and as an alternative to Tubulator which is $15. For AMT you sponsor him the remaining $65.

    Actually they dont sound like they are in Demos. Infact that's the case for every pedal. The recordings you heard were Dimitar's who is an AMT employee. There are so many other EQuing in pedals + software EQuing has gone through. So the demo is only indicative to a slight extent. So dont believe any of the demo soundclips totally,

    Play through a Tube Amp and AMT is not very impressive. Actually my Keeley Mod Boss BD2 really shined through. With a real nice crunch, gain and super sustain. BD2 is one of the best pedals I have come across. If you mod it, then it becomes a real pro pedal.

    For higher gain sounds AMT is anyway pretty decent. Checkout the Rocktron Silver Dragon. It's a semi tube pedal with a single 12AX7 tube. A real nice one. Checkout Death Rattle II by Toadworks or Mr.Ed by Toadworks. Damage Control Womanizer is a damn agressive pedal. Actually there are tons of great distortion / overdrive pedals.
