@scottosan brought his guitars and pedals. I'm thoroughly impressed with the Okko Diablo. It covers JTM, ACDC type stuff, to 90s hard rock. A boost takes it to metal territory. It's basically the best amplike pedal I've ever played.
I've had Weehbo JCM, Carl Martin Plexitone big pedal (really good), Analogman and Keeley DS1, Rockett Animal, JHS Angry Timmons, Wampler Pinnacle, and many others.
Whatever the Okko guys did works. I played it thru the clean channel of an EVH 50 Stealth and an old Vibroverb.
Compared to the Analogman DS1 with mid knob, the DS1 has that wall of sound gain. The Okko has clarity, articulation, dynamics.
I'm impressed.

What I really liked about that pedal was the EQ capabilities.
However, that is what paints itself in a corner for.
Super rad how you can dial the bottom end and mids and change the feel, sorta’ almost like a negative feedback pot attached to a few of the EQ pots.
The painting itself in the corner component is it can only go so far in gain due to how realistic it feels and sounds with the amp your grinding it through, which is cool,
if you’re at about STP levels of gain?
So by it being so awesome, it can only be so awesome, by staying being ‘that’ awesome?
WTF?
-That ole’ more molecule?✅
I dig that pedal with a straight up Strat also,
super good for the neck & bridge pickup.
(dialing it in),

He was a little video into the 5150 stealth clean. It was a lot more open through the clean. The Okko can definitely cover anything 80 rock. Because it behaves like an amp, it cleans up great and takes a tube screamer awesomely. I think o preferred it to the blue channel stand-alone gain. The red channel it tasty on the stealth too.
