Distortion Guitar Pedal, Mini Effect Pedal Processor of Classic Distortion Tone Effect Universal for Guitar and Bass, Exclude Power Adapter - KOKKO (FDS2)

Really good price, one of my first and favorite pedal. I love to mix it with other crunchy pedals. I do find that knobs kinda do the same thing however it sounds cool to me!

The KOKKO Distortion Pedal delivers sharp tones that work great for classic metal and modern rock. With its simple controls—Tone, Level, and Gain—it’s easy to dial in a solid distortion sound. I found that keeping the Gain knob under 50% helps avoid high-pitched feedback, but you can push it higher if you want a rawer, more aggressive feel. The Tone knob works best when set higher, adding clarity and presence to your sound, especially for leads. The Level knob does a great job of boosting the overall signal, and when paired with the bridge pickup, it really brings out a sharper, more cutting tone. On its own, this pedal gives you a solid rock distortion with a modern edge, but if you pair it with your amp’s distortion or throw in a compressor, it can work well for modern metal too. It’s versatile enough to earn a spot on your pedalboard, depending on how you shape it. For the price, it’s a great deal and definitely holds its own. It’s compact, well-built, and delivers tones that sound way better than you’d expect at this price point. Check out my demo video to hear how it handles clean tones and distortion—you’ll hear just how much this pedal can add to your setup.

The only thing I disliked when I got the pedal was that there was no cord to plug it in and in the description when I was looking to order it didn’t specify there was no cord included. I did order a cord immediately after receiving it so now I like it! It’s easy to use & works great!

I'm here partly to balance out the "where's muh cord?" people. Guitar effects pedals don't come with power adapters. Learn it, live it. As for the pedal, just a regular old cheap distortion pedal with the added benefit of sounding a lot better than many of its ilk. In fact it sounds more articulate and less buzzy than, say, a Wampler Phenom, which has a retail price 4X higher, aims for similar tonal territory, makes more electrical noise and sounds like it has a cocked wah behind it.

Used this pedal twice just to practice with, and it seemed fine. Didn't play it again for about 9 months while it sat on a shelf. Went to play it, now doesn't work. Power light comes on, works in bypass, but step on the switch, and nothing. I would not recommend anything that breaks while sitting in a box on a shelf.

This is reasonably good value for money but I didn't like the distorted sound it produced. I purchase a couple of other value distortion pedals and they can be setup to sound much better.

Great pedal at a very good price

I LOVE tryin out these little mini pedals... I ordered this KOKKO distortion pedal primarily because I previously bought one of the KOKKO TubeScreamer clones and I LOVE it... Just to be honest, I wasn't expecting a lot at this price, but I was pleasantly surprised... This pedal produces a nice, warm sounding, vintage/tube distortion... Not a TON of gain, it's not gonna give ya crushing metal style gain, but hey, that's not it's bag, baby... It will however get pretty hairy when it comes to classic rock sounding stuff... And the 5 stars isn't JUST for the tone, because if you wanted to spend 3 times the money, I'm sure you could find a "better" distortion, but let's keep this in perspective, here... For the price, this is a GREAT lil distortion pedal...

Never had a chance to play with my guitar since this product never wake-up.no gain lights, no sound output after using 9v dc. I ordered this product on 4th Jan but recieved it one 19 Jan moreover product was defected one. So sad, I have no words...
