The T-Rex Engineering Tonebug Overdrive is the simplest and cheapest pedal that T-Rex has the offer. It has 1/4 inch connections for both input and output and requires a 9 volt power supply. It is an analog unit that definitely has the vintage look and sound. This isn't a rack mountable piece of gear as it is a stomp box.
UTILIZATION
The configuration of the T-Rex Engineering Tonebug Overdrive pedal is about as simple as it gets. The pedal has parameters for gain, tone, and level and beyond this there isn't a way to control your tone. For me this is fine as it makes the pedal incredibly easy to use and I don't believe that it sacrifices any versatility. I've never seen the manual for this pedal so I can't say anything about it.
SOUND QUALITY
The sound quality of the T-Rex Engineering Tonebug Overdrive is top notch. I love the sounds that I get with it for recording as I find that I can get a number of different overdrive tones that are all vintage sounding and quite realistic. I have used the pedal with a Fender Telecaster and a '65 Fender Deluxe Reverb, and I feel that this is probably the most appropriate setting for this pedal. I can't think of any pedals that I would compare it to tone wise exactly, but I would say that it has a sound some think like an Ibanez Tube Screamer.
OVERALL OPINION
Overall, I'm a big fan of the T-Rex Engineering Tonebug Overdrive pedal. While T-Rex definitely has some better sounding overdrives in their collection than this one, for the price this can't be beat. It is an underrated pedal as I feel that those who know about it often compare it to the more expensive pedals that sound better in the T-Rex line of pedals. However, when compared to pedals in its price range, this is truly a gem. If you are looking for a great sounding overdrive pedal for around $100 USD, definitely keep an eye out for the T-Rex Engineering Tonebug Overdrive pedal.
