Distortions
Distoron and overdrive pedals were designed to give your guitar tone gain before it reaches your amp. Many heavily distorted
pedals such as the DigiTech Grunge
TM
were designed to provide most or all of the gain and run through a cleaner amp. Overdrives
are great for boosng the gain of your guitar sound and driving an already distorted amp, giving your total tone more gain and
a heavier feel. Overdrives on their own and ran into clean amps provide a bluesy tone. The available distoron pedals are:
•8tavia
(Modeled after Roger Mayer Octavia
TM
)
Designed in 1967, the Octavia was featured on “Purple Haze” and
“Fire” by Jimi.
•Anxiety Disorder
(Modeled after Fulltone
®
OCD Overdrive)
Straddling the border of overdrive and distoron, the OCD produces
amazing harmonics and drives any amp into oblivion. The overdrive is
thicker than most, yet clear, leng every string and note come through.
•Big Pi
(Modeled after Electro-Harmonix
®
Big Muff Pi
®
)
A requirement for any alternave player, the Big Mu Pi’s thick fuzz is
unmistakable in grunge, new wave and many punk hits.

Amp Driver
The Amp Driver distoron is designed to turn a regular distorted amp
into a monster. The Amp Driver not only distorts the guitar’s signal, but
also boosts frequencies around 600Hz. By emphasizing the frequencies
around 600Hz, amps can be driven harder and take on more of a metal
tone. A ‘mean sound’ is not only determined by how much gain you
put in front of your amp, but also by how hard you drive the amp and
with what frequencies the amp is driven with.
•DigiTech Death Metal
TM
Designed in 1992 to provide death metal musicians with a wall of
sound, the Death Metal
TM
pedal does just that. Whether you play early
‘90s grindcore or modern death metal, the Death Metal’s tone controls
give you a multude of sonic opons.
•DigiTech Grunge
®
In late 1991 as Grunge hit the radio, this pedal was designed as the
DOD FX69 Grunge. The pedal was designed by a young engineer who
played “punk” and was released as an experiment to see what this
“new type” of music was all about. Now a decade later, the Grunge is
sll a top-seller. The Grunge produces tones from early famous Seale
sounds to borderline metal. Don’t forget your annel….
•DigiTech Redline Modified Overdrive
Not your standard overdrive, the Redline takes overdrive to a place
that never existed. The Redline’s circuit overdrives the guitar’s signal
in a way that is not evenly clipped – like the way a tube amp distorts.
Add extra gain and a thicker low end and the Redline was born.
•Distortion
(Modeled after MXR
®
Distortion +)
A classic pedal due to it’s simplicity – just plug in and go. The Distoron
+ produces good honest distoron, perfect for driving a distorted amp.
