NuX Steel Singer Overdrive Pedal (Demo And Review)

I recently came across the NuX Steel Singer overdrive pedal while looking into Tube Screamers and the Boss SD-1. It is based on the Free The Tone String Slinger which in turn is based on the Dumble Steel String Singer amplifier.
But unlike the Dumble which costs many thousands of dollars or even the Free The Tone pedal which is about $300, the NuX Steel Singer only cost me £30 on Amazon. Worth a try at that price? But how does is sound? If you like the sound of it of any pedals in this video, affiliate links are below.

best tones and review of this pedal that I've seen ... well done

[@maxmilligan8734]

Excellent work :)

[@ProFunctionist]

Thanks Max!

[@peterpresson9474]

Yes expand!!

[@rham2010]

excelente test! el pedal es imbatible por el bajo precio y la calidad de sonido dumble

[@peteywheatstraws4909]

I picked one up for $40 (Nux), and it's on most of the time. I use it primarily as a booster. Most of my songs are clean, fingerstyle. My only criticism is that it starts to break up, semi defeating the purpose of using it vs a distortion. But it's a nice little pedal, and for someone that just plays and records for a hobby like myself, worth a try for a small investment.

[@riccardoooms9599]

great playing man, saw it on reverb for a good price, you recommend getting it?

[@alejandroangeles8587]

I own this pedal. It's a clone of the Maxon Ts9 Sonic distortion. And it's great. I'd totally agree. It's one of the best budget OD pedals out there. Just don't expect a "dumble style pedal".

[@MrJackrockerman]

Wrong.. SD9 got more gain. And the SD9 tone knob is nothing like this pedal .. Super wrong

[@thomasd9237]

👍👍 I really like mine, we will see if it lasts. Update: well I pretty much leave this on my board. I think it sounds better with single coils. My LP has a Pearly Gates neck & Screamin' Demon bridge. Pedal doesn't like it🤔

[@jessprice1518]

Well it IS a cool shirt

6:13 I've always thought of the Dumble sound associated with Steeley Dan, and Larry Carlton, which was always a tasty sound
