Anyone ever heard of George Dennis?
I don't normally use effects pedals anymore so I don't know much about them. I've got a Fender ouboard reverb unit, a THD Hot Plated, a Rat and a Cry Baby. I recently aquired this Distortion/Volume Pedal called "The tube" by George Dennis and I was wondering if anyone has any input on this unit. It does have quite a variety of sounds.

George Dennis pedals come in a really huge number of types & colors, and they are well made too. The rocker pedals are optical, so ther is no pot to wear out. I dont know what they cost in USA but here in Australia they are bargains because they come from Czechoslovakia (I think).

Paul,  
Yes this pedal is from Czechoslovakia and it's magenta with optical volume pedal, bass, mid, treble controls, gain and output level. It lists for $200.00 US, but I got it for about half that.

Paul, I use a GD switch/wah/vol pedal for several years it's great sounding and absolutely reliable due to its opto-electronics(no pot hassles at all).

Pete, there is a distributor here in Australia. I'll check & find who. The Music Swop Shop in Melbourne had a bunch on special once ($99Aust!!!) which went in a flash. That $US200 figure is just WAY XTREME!I think $A 150 is more like it.
