“A classic overdrive circuit with modern modifications for improved performance and versatility. Experience overdrive nirvana courtesy of the MXR Custom Badass team.”
We say:
The same team behind last year’s successful MXR Custom Badass ’78 Distortion turn their attention to overdrive pedals, adding a 100HZ filter control – designed to help retain the bottom-end when boosting the mids in your tone.
Essential tech specs:
Overdrive pedal with 100HZ frequency boost, ‘BUMP’ switch for low and mid-range boost and 9v power.
