The MI Audio stuff is not easily found. From what I recall, they're a small-ish outfit in Australia, and they build nice stuff ...great quality yes, but also really well-thought-out controls and parameters. Tone is subjective, of course, but I've found MI does a fine job in "engineering" the tone and dials that make for very usable effects ...at least in my limited experience with a few of their pedals. Perhaps try their website and find a dealer?
FWIW, no one pedal is perfect for all, but this particular OD pedal is
very transparent sounding, which is to say it adds hair around the edges without dramatically altering your core tone (unless you
want it to
). And the controls are very useful for shaping a light-OD-crunch around an
acoustic, which can easily too bassy and muddy when you apply OD. Let's face it, what numbnut puts OD on an acoustic?...drive pedals are not designed to fulfill those tonal parameters. Yet this pedal's tone stack is so versatile it takes whatever you give it readily. It was good on my electric pedal board, but on the acoustic board, it got me exactly where I wanted to go.
