Ok so most people have heard the Sick As by Bondi. What most people are unaware of is how great the Del Mar is. All we have to say is a clearer, better Morning Glory. Most say that this pedal is a great stage 2 overdrive but it has replaced the Morning Glory on our house board as our go-to stage 1 overdrive. While the Morning Glory is phenomenal in it’s own right the Del Mar takes what the Morning Glory does and added more gain, headroom, and clarity.
Similar to the Sick As the build quality is flawless. The mini toggle switch, knobs and footswitch are sturdy and feel great. The clickless footswitch is perfect for worship guitarists who are playing during intimate prayer times.
This pedal is robust through the entire gain spectrum. We absolutely love the low gain settings on this pedal but there is not a bad setting on it high or low gain. The bass and treble knobs are really sensitive and you can grab a ton of different tonality flavors from just 2 knobs.
Overall this pedal is as perfect as we have seen. This review is shorter than normal because we do not want to waste any more of your time. Go pick this pedal up now at BondiEffects.com or Reverb.com!
