Yup I've got one. I like it. I think that like most pedals it really depends on the amp and guitar but it has alot of tonal options. It sounded great through my fender HRDx, and great through a cranked epi valve jr. I think it definitely works the best through an amp with abit of dirt already there, but can sound a little thin by itself (which may actually be better in a band situation). All in all I'd say buy it used (i got mine on eBay for about $100) and beware of the failing footswitch.

I have played one several times. Lots of available gain, stays pretty tight, can be very modern and aggressive with loads of sustain or backed off for somewhat more vintage sounds. Good for solo boosts or as an always-on OD. A little bit buzzy for me, but overall a good tone with lots of bite. I also liked how it felt when playing fast passages, nice and snappy. The buzz just killed my buzz.

Tried it once into a Bogner shiva's clean side...didn't like it that much, as someone pointed out, it had a "cheap" sound quality to it, lacking note definition, punch and natural feeling

I had one, it was too gainy for my taste. Traded it in for a ToneBone Classic which I really like.
