An excalibur of a distortion pedal.
Solidly made and robust out of the box with a really quite straightforward front panel considering it offers two channels or voicings.
I'm a little unsure as yet whether this simplicity is a good thing or whether it could use a little more sound sculpting. But rather like a tubescreamer its often a case of matching the tone to your guitar and amp and then seeing what feels right in terms of gain.
Its at this point the Mudhoney really excels. While labelled a distortion pedal it can provide an outstanding transparent warm overdrive that pushes your amps natural tone nicely. But set one (or both) channels to "boost" and you've got a snarling beast on tap.
It sits really well in front of my Orange Head and has that "british classic" feel to my ears.
The sound is hard to praise enough. It oozes warmth but has some real teeth with some fuzz creeping in on higher gain settings. Plenty of oomph and bottom end. Highly recommended.

Two times from subtle to mayhem
A very nice and musically sounding overdrive/distortion, with a great sustain, that is in fact 2 times the same pedal in 1 enclosure. It can be used as a booster with very low gain setting or it can give you sounds from very pleasing crunch to harmonically rich distortion with much depth (allthough not the typical modern metal sound) and works perfectly with my amp's (Laney Lionheart) natural breakup sound and reacts very well to dynamic playing (the harder you play, the more saturation you get). The only con is that the plastic tone knob is maybe a bit close to the footh switch for people that get carried away by now sweet tone of your guitar. Very versatile super sounding stompbox at an incredible price. Highly recommended!

Sweet & Dirty!
Watch my full demo and review on YouTube: is a great quality pedal from a boutique manufacturer on a very decent price point. It sits in between a distortion and a fuzz with a thick bottom end and loads of sweet harmonic content. Normal mode offers great feeling and dynamics, while Boost mode has more gain, compression, and sustain. I set one side on Normal and one side on Boost. It sounds killer with single coils and humbuckers and into darker or brighter amps. Differently from most dual drive pedals that offer boost/drive/distortion, the Mudhoney is not very flexible nor fully featured, but it really nails in the fuzzstortion area and has a very unique and special voice! Ohhh, and it's yellow!
I bought it as soon as its price dropped in February 2019 and delivery took some 3 months because stock was in-and-out all the time. Now Thomann seems to have a more steady supply of Mudhoneys... go get it!

Perfect pedal for my needs.
I use this pedal for jamming with my band, performing live and practising.
So far it has filled all my "distortion" needs and I'd say its quite the beast. I like that you can choose 2 tones, sometimes u just need a little bit of distortion w tone 1 before u go crazy with tone 2.
I think that it is a very good pedal especially for the "sale" price its going right now!
RECOMMEND.

Brilliant, but one small flaw....
This is a great pedal for the price. Great sounds, and easy to use.
The one very small issue i have is the placement of the battery door, its underneath the pedal. If you want to stick it to a board,the cover sticks out....even after i took off the 4 rubber feet. The only solution was to take the door off totally, and then the pedal is flat and ready to stick to the board.

Great tones
I bought this distortion as an upgrade from my boss Ds1. Overall, its a great pedal. Its actually technically 2 identical pedals in one stomp box. It sounds amazing and has a wide range of tones to dial in. I use one half with higher tone and less gain and the other half with deeper tone, high gain and switched to boost. Amazing to switch between both sounds. I love the pedal. Got it at a great price of under €100 at the moment which is a bargain. Overall its a great sounding and sturdy pedal, but, bizarrely the two tone knobs which light up are noticeably cheap feeling and seem like they will break prematurely
Pros.. 2 pedals in one, wide tonal options.
Cons.. well built, but randomly the tone knobs feel really cheap and breakable.

Solid Pedal
Great pedal, so robust. Solid metal casing. Great for various distorted tones and super boost. I use it for theatre gigs mostly when I need two similar distortions but the second with a boost. Great pedal with great colour of tones. Will be hard not to find a tone you don't like. Reliable and fun. What more do you want? Crunchy!! Nothing I don't like about it. It delivers.

Excellent
An excellent overdrive-distortion-fuzz pedal.. it really can reproduce any kind of distortion you could ever need.. it's dual operation is like 2 separate pedals in 1. For it's price it's a bargain!

damn damn damn
who wouldn't have Overdrive, Distortion and Fuzz in 1 pedal. this is just monster pedal. u can have two different settings, and u can switch with just one click away.
after I bought this, I sound like god. it doesn't upgrade ur playing style or skill, but it upgrade the sound u create with ur magic finger.

Happy
I bought the pedal since i wanted to have 2 Distortions in one pedal, and the pedal does exactly that! you can set the two section in two completely different way, or very similar with only a volume boost. Great quality and great sound. Both since single coils (telecaster) and humbucker (Epiphone 335).
