Upon stomping it on, the first thing that hit my ears was a very clear Sovtek influence, albeit slightly brighter and crispier in the upper midrange. Before stomping it on, it’s clear that this pedal takes some sort of inspiration from the Big Muff circuit, with the controls “Volume” “Sustain” and “Tone” giving it away pretty completely. There’s a storm a-brewin’, so grab your Raincoats and let’s face the elements. This gray Raincoat is the second pedal from Robert Bird over at BuggFX (of Daydream fame) in Georgia, and it’s take on the distortion formula may seem on its cover like a classic Electro-Harmonix circuit, but there are bits and pieces hidden away in the tone that separate it from the saturated crowd of lookalikes and clones. The Raincoat is an amalgamation of thick distortion, warm overdrive, and crispy top-end rolled into a package that just begs to be your main overdrive, distortion, and everything in between.
