I have one currently not on my board. It is ok, it seems to add some sort of airiness (if that makes sense) that I never seem to warm up to. Kind'a reminded me of the Cure's drive when pushed. But I know others dig it and I have not sold it off yet so we will see.
Give it love see what you think. If I remember correctly Rockerfella really digs it.

I've had one on my board for 3+ years. I removed it and it only lasted one gig...I missed it!
It's a lighter overdrive but I like what it does in terms on tone and and the tiniest bit of compression. Setting Vol: 1:00, Drive: 11:00 and tone 1:30 gives me a nice "pop" into the Z-Wreck...not any more drive...just an "enhancement!" It'll give you more gain than I use it for but that's me.

Since my last name is "Greer" I had to try that pedal out. That was 4 years ago I think, and it is still on my board, along with the "Greer" Black Tiger Delay. In fact it is the only drive pedal on my board. I don't use it a ton, because I love what the Z-Lux does it by itself. But I do use it for that classic rock and roll drive tone. I love the Lightspeed and would never think of selling it.

That helps like ability when your name is on it. It got a real clear sound! I like it so far tied with The klon ktr ! Its like a ts9 but much clearer- Even with the koko boost it sounds great! I wish it could go a bit harder on its own- Like if the greer and klon were one pedal- So i dont have to tap dance. But it beats the ts9 - The ts9 sounds cloudy compared to the lightspeed. But when i set my amp up pushed- the lightspeed Sounds even better- Just played for a bit - ill keep her around and see if we work out

Resurrecting this slightly older thread as I'm looking at a Lightspeed to possibly replace a Boss BD-2 w Keeley mod.
You guys that have had one for a while now, what are your thoughts? Still like it? Sold it off?
It's function would be a light drive to kick a RYRA Klone for a mid-gain tone (i.e. 2 light-gain pedals forming a nice mid-crunch)
