Description

Introducing the Great Eastern FX Co. Design-A-Drive pedal, a revolutionary overdrive that puts the power of customisation in your hands. Tired of the age-old question of which overdrive works best with your specific amp or guitar? Look no further - the Design-A-Drive is here to redefine your tone.

Unlike most overdrives with fixed frequency responses, the Design-A-Drive empowers you with a pair of unique tone-shaping controls, namely 'Width' and 'Edge'. David Greeves, the founder of Great Eastern FX Co., explains the motivation behind this innovation, "We wanted to create a pedal that would let you tweak the parts of the circuit that really make a difference so you can make these decisions for yourself. At the same time, we wanted to condense these adjustments down into as few controls as possible so that the pedal could stay really simple and easy to use."

The 'Edge' knob takes control of the top end of the frequency spectrum, allowing you to adjust two separate filters for a tailored treble roll-off and a more intense cut in the high presence region. Simultaneously, it subtly influences the aggressiveness of the circuit's hard-clipping diodes, offering precise control over bite, grit, and presence. Complementing this, the 'Width' control, ranging from 'Thin' to 'Fat', reshapes the mid-range response, a crucial factor in harmonising your guitar, amp, and OD pedal.

With wide-ranging Gain and Level controls, the Design-A-Drive offers versatility, acting as a potent tone shaper and clean boost when the gain is dialled down. Whether you aim for a transparent tone or want to experiment with thickening single-coils or sharpening humbuckers, this pedal adapts to your preferences seamlessly. Say goodbye to the guesswork  plug in, find your perfect sound, and let the Design-A-Drive elevate your playing experience.
