Curious if anyone has hands on specific reviews on these pedals:

I tried out a Krank Maximus, about a month or so ago and it was ok.. i personally would not pay $280.00 for one.. Krank thereselves have said this pedal is the Krank tone in a stomp box for ppl who can affored to drop 3k on a krank head.. if you have a small great sounding clean sound on your combo, and cant affored a better amp, get this peadal it will make your distortion dreams come true.. BUT if your as lucky as me to have a mesa, or krank or any bigger amp with great tone and distorsion, don't waste your money...
 I use the Krank Krankshaft Pedal its a "very hot-rodded tube screamer-type pedal that sounds great as a front end lead boost or as a dirty sound on a clean channel". and its like $180.00 im not fussy about useing on clean for a main distorstion, but as a boost with some extra smooth distiorion its amazing..  -Blackface mod -SL+ mod -Treadplate Mod(JF modded) -XTC mod Stiletto 4x12 Slant cab w/ Vintage 30's Randall 2x12 Cab Ibanez Weeping Demon Wah GUITARS ESP LTD Truckster ESP LTD Viper 500S Aria Pro II ZZ Custom Deluxe '83 B.C Rich Bich NJ (Drop C) Taylor 316CE Acoustic Taylor 116CE (Drop A) |

I love the design on the Krankshaft!
I made this thread because I was exploring different pedals for one of my RG100ES. Those amps are fun to boost |

The V-Twin sounds nothing like a Recto. Don't let the diamondplate fool you. But it is a nice pedal.
And the Krankshaft has my attention. I gotta try it. |

I liked the V-Twin. It worked well with my JC120. It didnt turn it into a Recto at all. But did give me some nice F series and DC series type tones.
I traded it for the Soldano GTO which did have more growl and gain to it IMO. Too bad they are so damn expensive used. |
