"The Distillery does for my Tele what Wes Montgomery's thumb did for his L-5; it adds body and character while surrounding the tone with a sugary, natural sort of air. It's one of the first gain stages I've used that fully supports me when I'm improvising instead of forcing me to come up with ideas to suit the pedal. I love that it follows my lead and lets me play anywhere on the fretboard without sounding muffled or ice-picky. It's a new mainstay."
