Well the look pretty.

They were found in the '60s pedals like the Vox wah and Fuzz Face etc as well as that great icon of rock tone, the Vox Jaguar organ.

Do the sound better than the Marshals yellow mustard, Fenders blue Mallorys, or Pactrons?

You would have to determine that for your self.

They sound better than orange drops.

Of course most people have become accustomed to constant noise so due to hearing loss can't hear a difference
