The Ages is a clever little box; it's not just another overdrive. The five modes, combined with the LED/silicon clipping choices, let you dial in a surprising range of tones, from subtle boost to crunchy rhythm sounds. It's a great choice for players wanting a versatile, mid-gain overdrive that won't color their core tone too drastically – perfect for blues, rock, and even some heavier genres needing a touch of grit.
