It has true bypass, but I find that I don't need to bypass it to get all my guitar's tone back - just rolling off the drive and setting the eq knobs properly allows all my original tone through it's very transparent, unlike most overdrives that suck parts of your tone out. These are the tone controls everyone wishes their amps had. HI eq from warmly rolled off to in-your-face biting leads, and the LO eq lets you get all your guitars low end back if you want it. These tone controls are hands-down the best I've seen on any pedal, and even amps. I was amazed at the usability and range of the two tone controls (the one tone knob most pedals offer is never enough, even if they worked well). Power chords are so rich and satisfying with this pedal it's hard to stop playing! Even at hi gain, this pedal is quieter than other pedals, due to the toroidal power transformer.

At low drive settings, you get a warm, complex, bluesy grit, hendrix/SRV blues tones. This pedal is the gain stage that most players wish their tube amp had. I'm using it with a fender deluxe strat with duncan antiquity custom bridge pickup, and custom shop '69 neck/middle, and a blues jr. In a word, the sound is brilliant from this pedal.
