I got this a while ago and it really nails the EVH tones perfectly. I even had it plugged into a MG100DFX and it made that amp actually sound so much better than all the hate it gets. I found lots of distortions or overdrives couldnt nail that top in tight treble sound Eddie had until I got this thing, really punches the sound through and makes your amp scream...if you use 12" speakers that is haha

This solid pedal certainly packs a punch! With five knobs that can provide a variety of overdrive colour, I was able to get a great EVH sound out of this pedal. Very good construction and functionality. It's a great addition to my pedal collection.
