Perfect combination of overdrive
NJ 07.11.2019
This sturdy box have inside an amazing world of overdrive tones for you to explore and can really endure your feet!
Super easy to understand and to set it up.
Also, the combination of this to pedals is just perfect (you can use one at the time or both combined).
It works as a boost as well!
If you want two different types of overdrive, with the possibility to combine them, you should go for it.

so the crayon is a fairly dirty drive but the tubes is not, this is when all the vol and drive at noon.
i usually have the crayon vol at 9/10 and drive at 3 and just use the tubes as a clean boost

It sound like valve based overdrive...
Shadowchild 26.09.2020
I have used many years SD1 and I stil think that it is great overdrive. Ok, Hot Wax is more expensive, but result of using id is perfect. At first, it sounds vintage, but it is possible to set it modern. Another thing - many stompboxes are doing almost everything, distortion, overdrive, metal (it is music genre not sound efect) even fuzz (come on!). Hot Wax is only overdrive with plenty of "colors". Ok, sometimes it is similar to distortion but distortion is result of overdrive so...

Pros:
vintage sound
valve taste
very strong distortion
nice design
great possibilities for customization
meaningful price

Cons:
None

I have tested it on:
Fender Stratocaster Deluxe
Gibson Les Paul Faded 2018
Marshall DSL40CR
Marshall MG10

Great sound
DickEvans 22.01.2023
I wanted a warm tube like sound with a bit of sparkle. Hot tubes covers the first and Crayon the latter. I appreciate the articulation of the drive from transparent boost, especially the crayon, to warm crunch (hot tubes) all the way up to hard rock, when played stacked together. Only improvement would be to have a separate tone for each drive. Last thing is the blend knob which is really interesting and let’s you mix the clean signal with the processed one. Can give you more clarity even when you crank up the drive. Great pedal altogether!

If you are after massive tone from beautiful crunch tones to classic overdrive/distortion this is the pedal you want!
