Definitely has a color to it kinda like the Behringer TO800 (to me that was a nice overdrive color, was nice & smooth). The first song got some bite in it whatever you did and that was a lot like I would expect it to be, the rest is kinda on the vintage sounding OD side of the fence. I think personally, your playing is best without it on the leads because you have great technique and dynamics & it kind of takes that away a bit, but it's great on the riffs especially on the first track. I'd like to hear some low gain sounds because I'm guessing they'll be great with that vintage kinda color you were getting/dialing on the second track mostly.
