WAY back in my Youtube career, around 2009, one of the first pedals I demoed was the Catalinbread Dirty Little Secret. You can see that demo here if you're interested - https://youtu.be/vr8dzLrc4xs. Since then there have been a couple of updates and upgrades to the mighty DLS and now, in 2023, we have the Dirty Little Secret Deluxe which features an independent boost, power amp and 'tightness' control; 'Super Bass' and 'Super Lead' modes and various other enhancements and controls. Does it rock? Of course! The DLS Deluxe is quite fond of an TS-style overdrive planted in front of it too, just like the real thing. Good fun, good looks, good rockin' tones - good reasons to check out the Dirty Little Secret Deluxe. 🤘🏻
