According to manufacturer JCA the PLEXMAN is the egg-laying wool-milk-pig in terms of distortion. The reason for this claim can be found in the mini-switch, which is located between the drive and level controls. It's three positions are named with "Leo", "Jim" and "Fuzz", so everyone knows what's meant. The housing is made of sturdy die-cast aluminum, input and output jacks are from Neutrik, the footswitch is a heavy duty one (True Bypass), and on some components the manufacturer relies on expensive NOS parts.  Interesting detail btw: The movement of the pots is adjustable!  But what will the men Leo, Jim and Fuzz tell us?  Well, Leo would not turn around in his grave for sure. A typical Fender-style overdrive like an overdriven Champ or Princeton.  Very pleasant harmonics and not  scratchy. Turning the switch to Jim, it's going to be British. The sound gets aggressive, more scratchy, and with a lot of punch. It actually sounds like a good, overdriven Marshall. You really can work with this sound! And now Mr. Fuzz: Who is looking for fat, warm and singing sustain á la Big Muff is not served. Even brutal Zvex sounds (such as Fuzz Factory) are not it's thing. Rather, here presents a nice, round, non-synthetic rock sound, which comes along with a lot of punch and reminding on a moderately adjusted Fuzz Face. Somewhere in the middle of no-mans-land between distortion and typical silicon fuzz, the Plexman Fuzz is at home. Nice that even humbucker guitars with full opened drive control do not drift into muddy sounds. I really liked this third sound with it's grip and power, because it proves a strong character. In order to find the sweet spot and the appropriate volume of each of these three sounds, different positions of the level and voice controls are required. So switching back and forth, without adjusting, is not so easy.The made in Germany PLEXMAN is a reliable, really good triple-distortion pedal, which offers many sounds in a small space.
