Mad professor Handwired Royal Blue Overdrive

The compact MAD PROFESSOR Handwired Royal Blue Overdrive pedal produces a wide range of saturations, from overdrive to distortion. It can even be used as a boost with equalization when the Drive control is set to zero. The Mad Professor Handwired pedal range, produced in Finland, represents the firm's must-have product. Handwired, with through-hole construction, high-performance components (stability, reliability) from Alpha (potentiometers and switches) or Switchcraft (jacks), it is fundamentally transparent - something that musicians who love the sound of their guitar and their amp will appreciate - and has the major characteristic of the best tube amps: it is hyper-reactive and sensitive to touch. You can accentuate or attenuate the perceptible gain by modulating the instrument's volume potentiometer, or the attack of the strings.
The Royal Blue Overdrive HW is a wonderfully adaptive pedal, thanks to its two-band shelving EQ. It will excel as a main overdrive on your amp's clean channel, as a boost with EQ on a cruch channel, or in combination with another saturation pedal.

This top-of-the-range pedal is dedicated to musicians who prefer an old-school approach to sound, where the guitarist remains in control of intensities in all circumstances, and is used by artists such as Thor Jensen, Kristofer Steen, Matt Schofield and Warner Hodges.
