Haven't tried them all on the Axe Fx II or a real amp yet due to limited time. Just to note, I'm using the pedals in front of a Kemper. I may find a use for them, but haven't found the time to go any deeper. Messing with the internal trim pots helps, but at this point I'm spending too much time. The focus is just too nuts for me and adds too much noise in extreme settings and the ice scream, although pretty cool, doesn't seem to have the compression that the 808 has. my favorites are the od808 and Deadhorse III, closely behind are the 820 and vop9. So far so good, if the pedals end up randomly dying or something ill consider not buying from them again, but so far so good! My buddy also has a haunted delay, very good sounding warm delay though a bit on the basic side, not a real complaint. They have similarities I that they're both great modern aggressive sounding overdrive but also each retain their own unique bit of character. The bulb OD has a lot of 'headroom' so far I find myself with the drive at 0, the tone and volume around 12 o clock. The bulb od is the more djenty pedal of the 2, mids are more pronounced and the pedal has a metallic quality to its sound that I like. The dead horse has this kind of sucky toney thing where it kinda sucks things together, smooths things out some, but very aggressive with lots of gain. They're both great sounding modern pedals, cant speak on the internals as I am not electrician, but I don't regret purchasing the bulb od and am considering getting the DH MK3 for some extra tonal versatility! I've tried both the deadhorse (not the mk3) and the bulb od (non variable attack). I was at the funeral of one of my best friends today, so obviously didn't get around to it. I still have to play with it more and with a 7. I can't say it's a problem though.Īnyhow, I don't notice any build issues with this one. The graphics do look a little weird and the paint is actually a very light, almost white, seafoam green. I don't think the enclosure is steel, but perhaps a light aluminum. The pedal is pretty light though, which can be perceived as not being solid, but I can't say that's a problem unless you're gonna use it for target practice. I didn't think I'd get another one either, but I really wanted something with a bass cut and I got a deal on the pedal. At this point I can't say which one I prefer to be honest. The sound quality and noise isn't any worse than my od808. My DHIII has not build issues that I can find on the exterior, and with the attack switch engaged and the dial on medium, it seems the noise is actually cut a bit, the tone is clearer, without making it sound dead at all. I haven't looked at the guts of the DHIII yet, but the Bulb Deluxe was very clean inside. and I've only used the PTDHIII with a 6 string guitar so far. The Protone still has mids, but they seem shifter a little bit. I watched a demo in which it sounded almost identical to the 808, but it's far more adjustable of course. Now I'm trying to get my hands on a vfe ice scream. But at least through a high gain 6505 profile, it can sound microscopically close. It's easy to make it do its own thing, but to mimic the 808, it takes some work. I can get some setting to sound almost identical to the Maxon 808, but it takes some fidgeting. My ears are shot for today though! Just listening for pick attack has wrecked my ear, maybe for the weekend. I've only messed around with it in front of one profile on a Kemper though. However, having the selector on the lowest setting, the OD produces a lot more bass. It also seems that there is more bass when the attack switch (bass switch) is engaged, even with the filter set to 720! Weird. It actually seems that the Maxon still cuts more bass, regardless of the HPF settings. I don't know whether I like it better or less than the 808. These frequencies were carefully selected to offer the widest range of flexibility for any musical genre.Haven't gone through all the motions yet, but so far, it seems to add the attack of single coils to humbuckers, especially when turning up the tone knob way high. The 6-way Filter switch gives pre-set frequency response curves and low end definition Dino is famous for. With his signature drive, Dino took advantage of Pro Tone’s rich history of designing the best overdrive and distortion pedals available today - pulling aspects and technical specifications from several different models to form an amalgamation all his own. The Pro Tone Pedals Dino Cazares Overdrive is Dino’s take on the Pro Tone Pedals Attack Overdrive.
