Not all cheap pedals disappoint! The Joyo AC Tone is a well-regarded and insanely affordable take on the Vox-style amp-in-a-box.
Surprisingly feature-rich, it can be used as a normal drive / EQ pedal or as an amp sim at the end of your pedal chain into a PA or direct into your audio interface. It has a 3-band EQ as well as a voice control that allows for lots of tonal possibilities.
