Free The Tone Overdriveland ODL-1A-CS is the custom shop version of this overdrive and based on a Dumble Overdrive Special amp. This pedaI is fitting for contemporary music, offering a robust rock-oriented sound.

This custom shop version has three important changes compared to the regular version. First of all, specially designed modules have been used with components that are more sensitive and respond better to the input signal. Furthermore, this version has the possibility to continuously adjust the voltage of the internal circuit from 10 to 19 volts. And via the CH Cont input on the side of this pedal you can switch between the two channels with a (Latch-type) switch (not included).

The pedal consists of two main sections. The first is the Normal Channel circuit, through which the signal passes when the Normal Channel is selected. This circuit includes the Tone circuit (including the EQ on/Glass switch) and Gain characteristics adjustment with the Rock/Jazz switch. The second section is the Drive circuit. When the Drive Channel is selected, the signal passes through this Drive circuit before flowing into the Normal Channel circuit.

The Normal Channel provides a clean to crunch sound. The channel produces nice harmonic components that will change with the strength of your picking, altering the tone. Adjust the Gain knob to achieve your preferred level of distortion, and adjust the volume using the Nor Level-knob.

The EQ on/Glass-switch controls the equalization function of the Normal Channel. When set to EQ on the tone circuit is activated, allowing you to shape your tone. Selecting Glass bypasses the tone circuit, giving you a glassy tone reminiscent of turning on the Bright switch on a Blackface Fender Vibroverb.

The Rock/Jazz switch adjusts the frequency response and gain settings of the Normal Channel. The Rock side is designed for shaping your sound with increased gain, while slightly reducing the gain in the low-frequency range. The Jazz side, on the other hand, lowers the overall gain and is designed to bring out the richness in the low-frequency range.

The Drive circuit is equipped with a Hi-cut filter, making it easy to adjust the high-frequency characteristics. Additionally, the Push control adjusts the signal level sent from the Drive circuit to the Normal Channel. You can also adjust the volume when the Drive Channel is selected using the DRV Level knob.

This pedal is powered by a standard 9 volt power supply (not included).
