You basically made your own Metal Zone and its amazing
This is literally the first pedal I’ve heard with the right features in a simple design that would convince me to get a “just great clean” amp and then create my own distortion. BRAVO!!!

I like how it sounds good at every setting. Like, the tones are still usable even with knobs at extremes. That's rare haha.
I am not a big Solar fan, but you just gotta give credit where credit is due- Ola managed to jam a whole lot of features into one pedal, while at the same time keeping the it size-friendly and at the same time having an absolutely top-level aesthetics that really raises the bar. Congratulations for a job VERY well-done!

Finally a pedal with all the adjustments that you actually need instead of what they want to give you. Rock on Ola that's pretty cool!
"Extremely useful gate" - god do I love this man
Ordered!!! Who else is stoked?! 🎉🎉🎉
Ola what a awesome Metal pedal. The shipping package and the Chug pedal box is top notch. Couldn't be happier! Love the slope and the etching. I definitely feel like you caught Dimebag in a box plus it takes my P-drive super well. I was chugging away in less then a minute.
That sounds absolutely killer dude, congrats on releasing a bomb pedal!
Just ordered mine and can’t wait to use it. I’m Always happy to support you and the team. Grats on the new chapter and look forward to the next pedal.
Congrats, Ola! The pedal looks and sounds awesome! That gate knob is very useful!
I like how this is basically the Satan preamp in a box. Gotta hand it to you Ola, this is the most versatile pedal for high gain we've had so far, bravo!

That is a beautiful pedal and i love how straight forward it is.
This is a really good pedal. It has a lot of good features all in one pedal. I really like the advanced EQ, the gate, and the dual-gain feature. More options to dial-in your perfect chugging tones. It sounded really good.
the difference it made just with the pedal alone into the clean section of the amp was insane😲😲
Ola taking it to a hole new level!! Sounds awesome !!!!
Great pedal and demo! Tone and flexibility of the sound I’ve been looking for in what seems like forever. Purchased. 🤘🎸🇺🇸
Very nice jazz pedal
No esperaba menos, tiene todo lo que necesitas para un pre amp de este tipo, la incorporación del noise gate me parece para aplaudir de pie. El audio súper modificable y en cuánto a estética es minimalista me gusta
congratulations, it sounds incredible, including the gate is a great idea
Congrats on this dude!!! Solar is growing and that's incredible!!!🔥🔥🔥
Love it! U r a genius! The R&D work on it must’ve been top notch! Great awareness of the guitar market, a lot of features but focused more on supporting the purpose of the pedal more than on just craming a lot of functions into it. Super impressed and inspired! Sounds great too! The lil amp presentation in the end was a jackpot 🎰 fuck!

Dude, your riffs lately are even better than usual. Hell yeah.
Impressive. Pedal is useable throughout the knob ranges and should work for a variety of amps and guitars. Great demo as well on DI, stack direct or FXLoop, and combo. Personally I’m not a fan of modern metal tones but this is an impressive product. (I like crunch tones, use a Fryette D120 on my Diamond 4x12 with boosts and such)
Omg this is brilliant! I love the gate on it. The concentric knobs to save space. It looks SICK! Ola you nailed it with this one! I hope this is a main stay and not just a short run.

I just can get over how good the pedal is. I was between this amd the deizel pedal...im getting this. Awesome job Ola., you made the best metal chug pedal thereb s today man.
Sounds better than most plugins out there and it's a "real" pedal I think definitely even great sound for the studio and a great start to Solar Pedals, if you guys make a boost pedal it's defiantly (along with this one) is going in my collection. The noise gate is like icing on the cake that means you can crank it up as loud as you want!!!

Killer riffage Ola!!! Pedal sounds great man!!! Thanks!!
I just bought this pedal, I've been following your channel for a long time, I can't wait to receive it :)
Great Job Ola!!
Already ordered!!! Only on the little 2 min video !!! And now I'm very glad I did
Good EQ-ing is everything when it comes to getting the tone u want, great to see you've done a masterful job of it in this pedal :-) Plus handy noisegate and ability to vary the hi vs low frequency gain. Superb.
Finally, someone has made a preamp pedal I've always been looking for!
Well I just couldn’t resist… 😂 I paused the video and ordered this thing right away! I am very excited to try this! Cheers!
Congratulations man!!

I got mine today. Very solidly built - like a tank. And it performs just as presented here. Good value for money!

OHHH Thank you! my Christmas gift!
very good pedal man. The distortion LF and HF gain, great ideia. Parabens mestre! abraços do Brasil.
Saving up for one right now. This is insane. 🤘🤘
It's feisty, no doubt about that. It's all the good stuff built in a straight-forward package, bravo for that. No taking the pedal apart to turn a gain screw , micro-switches or micro dials on the side nonsense. It's priced about where I thought it would be and not in the stratosphere like some can get and the pictures make it appear to be of very sturdy, stage ready construction. Cheers.
Sounds incredible
Great work!
Just wow! I really like this pedal and the possibilities to adjust the sound you want and with a noise gate it's absolutely great. If you compare it with other high gain distortion pedals it is not expensive. This pedal is on my list now "pedal I have to buy". 🤘🙃
Amazing pedal ! Appreciate that you use standard tuning to demonstrate this beast . Proof that it is not necessary to « downtune » deep into the ocean to sound powerful .
Saw it, bought it. Pretty sure i am going to like it 🤘(can't wait)
I bought one as soon as I heard about it solely on Ola's reputation. I'm ready to chug!! 🤘
Sick dude. Fair ticket price too. Thanks Ola. You rock . Sounds good
