What I enjoyed the most
- The sounds
- The compactness of the format
- The complementarity of the 3 effects
- Manufacturing quality
What I enjoyed the least
- The reverb can be a bit too present
Conclusion
In a very compact format, the Rumble Seat offers you a complete kit that can very well play the role of a complete pedalboard. Everything is here! The overdrive sounds great with a nice variety of sounds. The analog delay is perfect. The reverb can become very present as soon as you increase a little the pot nevertheless it gives an excellent result.
The acid colors of the look are not necessarily for everyone but at least the pedal will have impact on your pedalboard.
Until the next gear review, keep on playing the guitar!
