ROD 881 Real Overdrive\Distortion

Distortion, Overdrive

A tricked-out version of the ROD880, the ROD881 Real Overdrive/Distortion offers even more tone shaping control than its older cousin. Powered by a hand-selected 12AY7EH preamp tube, the ROD881 takes all the great overdriven tube sounds of the ROD880 and turbo charges them by adding a switchable Distortion mode for searing, super-saturated guitar tones that rival the biggest of the big rigs in the amp world. In addition, the ROD881 features a Footswitchable Boost mode that effectively adds another channel to your amplifier.

Sound 10	Great Distortion. I like the distortion and the Boost. The boost is great both for the dist. and the OD, but the OD by itself is too fuzzy and bassy. EQ dynamic range is Average + Great for moderate Rock, Not for heavier stuff
Usability 10	Many features: Gain, Master, Low, Mid, High knobs Dist\OD switch Has also Noise gate on\off switch and threshold knob, On\Off Knob Boost On\Off knob
Reliability 9	Doesnt seem to have problems (Yet)
I Like	Distortion Boost
Don't Like	Overdrive
