And all you need to use it is this handy 758 page instruction manual.

Somebody shoot me if I ever get this carried away. As some wise man once said:

"Just because you can doesn't mean you should...."​

What made me laugh is the guy demonstrating the pedal is speaking as if it's completely normal. You gotta love the Japanese for their dedication to obsession. My (Japanese) wife is kind of the same, she has to put stickers on everything.

If you're interested in knowing what he says, the following is a (rough) translation:

SD-1 from hell.
This (switch) is clipping... this is silicon and this is mosfet... this is no clipping (middle pos).
And this is the lo-fat switch.. at the moment lo-fat is switched off.. now is with lo-fat switched on.
And this is the hi switch (left switch)... (switches up) this (position) lets the his thru...
The effect switch has been converted to a boost switch.
(hand on bottom knob) this is the booster gain.
The booster gain’s tone is controlled here (points to 3 knobs on side) ... hi, middle and lo.
Setting the middle way down....(metal riff)
You can get quite a number of settings.

I love the Japanese! I bet the camera he is using to film the pedal is around his neck. And I would also bet his guitar can transform into a robot that can clean his house.

'Guitaru-chan. . . go!'

That's one nifty pedal, though. . .

haha "Only in Japan" as they say. Just waiting for the Keeley version LOLO.

And thx to your wife for the translation.
