Fender Downtown Express Pedal - worth it?

Post by Disco Volante »

G'day all, just checking if anyone has first hand experience with this pedal?

Going through a bit of an accumulation phase and this one has taken my interest.

I have a SansAmp 3 switch DI/Drive, but no dedicated compressor or specific EQ (though the SansAmp gives a bit of variety there).

Thanks for your time.

I would say it's better than the other two pedals I have tried with built-in compression (TC & EHX Metaphors)

It's a different tone than the Sansamp, with a broader range of tone available.
I would equate it closer to a Aguilar Tone Hammer, and there's probably a really good reason for that.
