I rarely like EHX pedals in their original format in any case though and prefer the various JHS modded versions - those are the ones I have acquired. Two working modes (high peak mode and low peak mode) ensure you get the most frequency boosting range possible. If your pedalboard space is tight, then this will make a more than competent alternative for the majority of players. It has a number of really clever toggle selectors which allow you to set the EQ-stack before or after the gain, ramp up the gain multiplier level, and change clipping options.

There is still some contention as to which Dumble-style pedal this one is based on - and why it has the Green and Yellow colour-scheme. t used this pedal with any single coil based guitars, but have used it on a Harley Benton SC-Custom?I currently use a regular-size Dr Scientist Frazz Dazzler as my sort of extreme Rat-alike with bells on. Like I said earlier, the best current all-rounder out on release is the Elektron, but you cannot really use the Elektron properly unless you have had an education in dialing in and playing all those various different tone stages that the Elektron commands. I run the pedals into dual amps - a digital Boss Katana-100 and an all-tube Carvin VM3C via Radial Twin City ABY. The Mooer Black Secret is really good too and gives you an additional Turbo voicing via 2-way toggle, as the standard Rat is not particularly high output.

Hence, the Riverside is not quite the complete all-rounder it needs to be, but it does do certain things very well. I read a few reviews of the EHX Glove where it is said to be rather Marshall-esque in tone, while I find it a touch closer to the core timbres and textures of the OCD. It carries largely the same kind of flavour, but provides a slightly thicker, bassier tone which I love, but which several purists might dislike for similar opposing reasons.

The other heavy hitter fuzz pedals are the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff (-Pi) and all-rounder fuzz workstation - the Zvex Fuzz Factory 7. The Hermida / LovePedal Zendrive is possibly the most well known, and if you have the money and space, you could go for a Custom Tones Ethos Overdrive or Van Weelden Royal Overdrive.
