I can't remember if we have discussed this here or not, but does anyone have any experience with Joyo pedals?
I'm looking for a Soul Food (apparently a clone of the Klon) but also want to grab a couple of other inexpensive pedals and was thinking of checking out some Joyo models. I was considering the Ultimate Drive (a clone of the OCD) but stumbled across some vids of the Joyo Sweet Baby (a clone of the Mad Professor Sweet Honey Overdrive) and really liked the way it sounded in those vids for low gain tones.
Since the AC15 has reverb and tremolo I won't be looking for any modulation effects, except perhaps for a delay pedal at some point in time, so I am mainly concerned with overdrives at the moment (not Tube Screamer types though as those apparently sound bad through an AC15).
So I am curious if anyone has any experience with Joyo pedals?

I have Joyo Tremolo that I had on my board for a couple of years. Sounds great and quite well made, never let me down. Only heard good things about their Ultimate and Vintage overdrive, but the Sweet Baby would be my choice too.

I watched another video from the same guys when checking out this pedal. Definitely got me interested!
I've read some posts complaining about switches failing on the Sweet Baby but they might simply have had a bad batch as I assume they use the same switches on all of their pedals and I can't remember seeing any complaints with other models.
This is the video that I watched:
Apparently it is a copy of the Mad Professor Sweet Honey overdrive pedal and here is a video that compares the two:

No personal experience but I've only heard good things.

I have a tried them and they were decent, but two of the ones I had popped when clicking them on (may have been user error). I sent them back to Amazon and ended up buying a few of the Joyo Ironman nano pedals (which also fit better on my compact pedal board).

I remember you posting about those but forgot to look into them. I will do so now.

I have a "Vintage Overdrive" and it's a good pedal. I know people will always say "you get what you paid for", but these are well built pedals.
