Roughly a standard compact pedal footprint. Fits a crowded board without eating a full row.
Detail 03
Light enough that velcro holds it fine; no need for a heavy-duty board mount.

Pushes the front of your amp hard. Expect the amp's own breakup to stack on top.
Detail 05

Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
Yes. It generates its own distortion, so it doesn't need a tube amp to sound driven. You'll get more character stacking it into a tube amp, but it stands alone.
You can roll the gain down for a light push, but this pedal is voiced around distortion. A dedicated boost will stay cleaner.
Yes. At about 4.7 by 3.8 inches it takes roughly one standard compact slot.
No. Plan on a separate isolated supply or a slot on your existing one.
