Kmise Hot Plexi Electric Guitar Effect Pedal,True Bypass,Tip‑Negative

I bought the Hot Plexi simply because it wasn't expensive and I was looking to experiment with a few budget pedals. I'm really glad I did! On it's own, with a boost, or blended with a t.c. electronic Dark Matter it's a great pedal! It works great alone, as an OD or distortion. It's not noisy, looks great, fits easily on my board etc, etc... I can't say anything bad about this thing! I just spent the last hour playing with it, and plan on getting back in a few minutes. If you think you'd like it, you probably will. I get tones from blues rock, classic rock to metal. Best $18 pedal I've ever seen!

This pedal gives good amp like distortion but does not have enough output (it barely makes unity volume at max setting). This is why it only gets 3 stars. I purchased this pedal to use in a combo pedal I was putting together. It's a great deal for $18, but without fixing the low output problem it's barely usable. This pedal and the Joyo Hot Plexi are very similar in design (the circuit, not the enclosure). Do a search for this video title on YT; "Joyo Hot Plexi Mod, It can actually hit unity volume now" ; and learn how to fix it.

l love it and make my guitar sound good

The Hot Plexi delivers a nice, warm tube-driven emulated sound. It doesn't have a wide range of adjustments according to my taste, so it's a bit of a one-trick pony. But it sounds good when you find the "dist" sweet spot at around 10 to 11 o'clock, especially since it's priced under $20, the cheapest one I could find. Think of that 70s classic rock moderate to low-level distortion, from smooth power to all the way down to just the edge of breakup. If you're into metal/shredding, look elsewhere. It gives a noisy hum if you add a 2nd gain pedal, but in retrospect it's best when used alone since it's not really meant to be that hot. No noise issues when adding a modulation pedal such as a flanger or phaser. Very good value if you don't need the bite of a screaming hot gain pedal. That's not what this is for. Recommended.

I liked the compression and higher gain tones produced by this pedal. However the deal breaker for me was the volume was so much lower than my other pedals and it is definitely a one trick pony, not much versatility in the tones available. Maybe I received a dud, if the volume on this pedal was a bit louder, I think would be a 4 star (less 1 star for the limited tone and gain control) - it’s higher gain Marshall in a box.

Great pedal! Great sound! With my setup I can easily get the BROWN Marshally sound as heard on the first few VanHalen albums along with any other Marshall style sound you could want ranging from Plexi tones to JCM tones. So this thing has you covered from rock to metal and anything in between. Sounds real good with a tubescreamer or SD10 in front of it. This is the same sound as the Joyo Hot Plexi. I don't know how the schematics differ. It is a relatively quiet pedal just like the joyo. I did a mod on the joyo to increase the volume but not affect the distortion or tone. I haven't opened this one up to see if it's modable because I'm probably gonna send it back just because I already have the joyo and it's mod'd already and ready to go. But all in all this is a great pedal and it's worth having in the collection!

Se me quemo

Not a high output volume pedal needs to be boosted after the pedal for acceptable vikume. Other tgan that has decent sound.

I have no problem with cheap pedals, I have plenty and they all do a great job compared to my more expesive ones. I've bought numerious 'Plexi/Marshall' style pedals from Joyo, NUX etc. but none have been anything more that a distortion pedal with slightly different EQs compared to my amp. They just don't change the characteristic sound of an amp to make it sould like a different one, such as a Marshall Plexi, at least not with my amps. But as it was cheap I thought I'd give it a whirl to see if it was a worwhile distortion pedal. Compared to the online reviews, it wasn't as bad as I'd heard other's demo it. It wasn't cranked immediatley, there was some sublte distortion on the go, similar to an overdrive. When you put the gain up full, there is a fair amount of distortion, but not massively. I'd say EQ wise it just tamed my mids a little. I tried it on my clean channel, which was a little dull. I then tried it on my gain channel with only slight brakeup. Neither were special, I'd have prefered one of my many cheap overdrive pedals instead. So does it do Marshall, even Plexi? nope, it's just a medium gain distrotion in a metal housing that's cheap to buy and doesn't take up a lot of space on your board. It's a shame you can't spend £15 and get a Plexi, it really is ;)

Se escucha bien, es para principiante, mete algo de ruido pero básicamente cumple con lo esperado

At £10, I was impressed. Pretty crunchy distort, strong metal casing. Happy.
