Some of the writing style seems a bit too casual, IMO. Some of the spacing seems off as well. Just as an example, this is what I would do for the HBOD page. Would also add in a bit more description for each pedal.

The Honey Bee sounds and reacts like small vintage combos with broken in tubes and speakers. Dynamic response is high, yet it has a very easy to play feel. With the innovative 'Nature' control in conjunction with the Drive control, you're able to drastically change the response both pre and post distortion.

The Volume control controls the overall volume without changing the distortion.

The Drive control varies the distortion complexity and saturation.

The middle control adjusts the 'nature' of the EQ. Begin with this control straight up (noon); to the right there is a subtle adjustment to the upper frequencies with the most treble content being located in the fully clockwise position. Turning this control counterclockwise from noon adds in lows and changes the saturation in conjunction with the Drive control. At full counterclockwise, the Honey Bee is fully bloated and saturated like a small combo pushed to its limits.

Operates between 5~15VDC.

Thx mm --- yeah thats my midwestern understatement :D I try not to push much or oversell things ... Id rather the descriptions easily match what people will get when they plug in than try and trick them into something - I have a degree in marketing and wrote and produced commercials in a previous life, but I try and use my powers for good now :mrgreen:

I tend to do the same. Feels weird trying to describe something I'm selling in terms of sound and making it sound appealing without going overboard.

gain up: heaven (the one with the 77 virgins)
gain down: heaven (the one where everyone is dressed in white and clean and pretty but still awesome!)
