The JHS Overdrive Preamp is a faithful replication of the rarely seen first version of DOD’s much loved pedal.
The controls are simple. The Level control adjusts the overall output of the circuit and lets you cut or boost the signal. The level control of this version has been modified (corrected) from the original wiring of the #75 unit, giving this pedal much more volume on tap. The Gain control adjusts the amount of gain inside the overdrive circuit. Turning up “Gain” creates more clipping as it pushes the op-amp and hard clipping into overdrive.
We’ve also added a slider switch to this production version, which wasn’t included with the original DOD 250. While researching the #75 “Big Box” pedal, A second early big-box unit was aquired which used a completely different clipping arrangement, which is added via a switch to give you the best of both worlds.
Includes original box.
