DC Overdrive (DCO)

$199.00

High gain overdrive/distortion with deep lows and thick tone – The “Listen to me” tone.

The DCO started out as an experiment. And after hours of tweaking, listening and more tweaking it has become ourmost unique overdrive. The complex overtones and dense textures from this pedal will push small combo amps into half-stack fullness. It is thick, lush and creamy. But with the clipping lifted and the tone turned up it gets bright like a germanium fuzz. The fat boost will thicken up a Strat or Tele, or push a Les Paul to create a wall-of-sound. Be careful playing this pedal with other electric players … your tone will DOMINATE! This pedal is a must-have if you play in one-guitar bands.
