Congratulations on your purchase of the Mudhoney distortion!
It’s sound is meant for slight grit, plain old distortion or almost
fuzz-like tones, so make sure to sweep through the gain range to
get a feel for how the pedal reacts.
We recommend tweaking the gain knob and the mode switch to
find the right gain setting, because both will affect the gain, but
not in the exact same way - a high gain setting on the cleaner
mode may sound better to you than a low gain setting on the
high gain mode setting.
The tone control may seem subtle in the way it adds/detracts
high frequencies, but in use, this makes it easier to dial in the
desired response.
The output level can be boosted when turning the level knob
up, so it works just as good as a “push the front end of the amp”pedal. With a lower gain setting, the EQ curve in combination
with the level boost takes an already dirty amp sound to higher
levels of push, gain and raw-someness, without muddying up
the sound.
