The Roland Core Distortion is a distortion pedal sold under the Roland name, a Japanese manufacturer whose guitar pedal work is more commonly associated with its Boss subsidiary. Little independent coverage of this specific model exists under the Roland brand rather than Boss, so control layout and circuit details are not asserted here. A prospective buyer would do well to check whether it corresponds to a known Boss circuit before purchase.
The Tone City Model S Distortion is a budget amp-model distortion from Tone City's Model series, delivering high-gain distortion character in a compact mini format at budget pricing.
