This is a re-engineered take on a transparent, Bluesbreaker-style overdrive, built to deliver clearer pick attack, improved low-end response, and greater flexibility when stacking with other gain pedals. Designed as an ideal first-stage overdrive, it balances light breakup with strong dynamics and headroom.
At its core is a studio-grade parallel clean blend that runs alongside the overdrive circuit rather than after it. The Clean control scales proportionally with the drive signal, preserving low end, punch, and transient detail without phase issues or volume jumps. The tone control affects only the overdrive path, leaving the clean signal untouched. A ±9V internal power architecture provides increased headroom and authority, delivering amp-like edge-of-breakup feel at any volume.
