Way Huge Pork Loin

I was looking for an overdrive which could be set for a very mild distortion for strumming full chords for rhythm. This does exactly what I want! The internal adjustment for the Clean control makes it very easy to fine-tune the sound for a balance of clean to overdrive levels.

The pedal is very versatile. It can be adjusted for mild overdrive layered over a clean-channel sound, or it can be a very strong overdrive with a huge amount of boost. With the Tone and Drive controls can even be taken into distortion territory. So nice!

a very good buy

I love this monster pedal, so clean and powerful,

Not lean, just tough to get to know

The pork loin can be your friend, or your enemy. It has gentle drive that works best with your amp than alone, and dialing in the clean brings back a bluesy definition that sounds fantastic. The curve control has several behaviors... it takes time to find what will work best with you. I have the Pork Loin, Fat Sandwich, and Swollen Pickle out of this line, and they all take a lot of tweaking. If you like a pedal that sounds good with your rig at any setting, these are NOT for you. If you want one that will probably sound AWESOME after hours of tweaking, any of these are great, the pork loin no exception.

pork lean

This pedal is ok but not great in my opinion. It is difficult to dial in a sound that doesn't render your guitar tone robbed of depth. So it is a little cloaked and thin sounding. If you keep the distortion low and the clean knob high or full than it can provide a nice boost. However, do not expect much usable overdrive. If you mostly want a volume boost with a little bit of edge than this pedal may be just fine for you. And if you gotta have it, get a power supply because it eats batteries.
