I know you probably won't believe in this... but they sound cheap to me.... especially their distortions and overdrives. I was impressed by their wah pedal though Not as smooth or well built as a Crybaby.... but it does the job well

(no contest next to a line 6 variax.) the od-100 is meant to be a duplicate of the boss model like it. i have a vamp2 and it's pretty good too. funny i like the marshall and vox ac30 models on this and my pods best they must be close!

Newbie Posts: 6 Group: Members Member #9,314 Joined: February 25, 2010	I purchased a Digital Reverb pedal from Behringer a while back without using one or hearing one before. You get what you pay for really. It costed me 26 GBP. It isn't the best piece of kit, which is why I've now replaced it, but if you're on a tight budget it's perfect.
