Who wants a Signature Over Drive ??

[Mike Oxhuge]

DOD Death metal with a gain control.

 

[Rottweiler]

Not that its any good, but my very first pedal was a red label Arion distortion. I remember back when I was 15, the input jack went bad. In the middle of band practice, I opened it up, resoldered the jack to the board and it never sounded better.

After my first few gigs, I started to upgrade my gear so I never looked back to see what it sounded like and gave it away. Were those any good?

@griff10672 do you have an OCD variant?

 

[Texsunburst59]

I don't really have a favorite ....... I have had so many OD's on my board .... the ones use the most are : My original Chiron ... my Super Doopah Drive ...

latest circuits I've built that have impressed the hell out of me ...... the Expandora is the clear stand out there .... what a sick pedal ..

JRocket Lenny has surprised the hell out of me for High Gain applications .... my version of the Maxon 820 is also pretty bad ass

I could easily do a op amp fuzz .... and have never built one yet ... that's a good entry

I didn’t know you did your version of the Maxon OD-820 .

I’ve got one from the early 2000’s, and it’s a killer pedal, but it’s a space hog on a board.

Was yours a small box version?

Do you build these upon request, or do you have to build them in batches?

Back to the OD suggestions

Lovepedal Zendrive
Menatone Red Snapper
Nobels ODR-1 w/bass cut

Obviously these are all made, but I’d like your take on them

 

[Zado]

A more tweakable HM2, less noisy, other cool sounds without going dimed

What about a plimesoul type with your talanted mods to make it fatter

way to many knobs and buttons on there for you ..... you need a one Knobber .... I've been keeping my eye out for something for you

 

[BeZo]

And Expandora!

Yeah that middle toggle would give me sleepless nights
You can omit that

my OCD ....... killer version with internal dipswitches that let you replicate all the different revisions .... plus some clipping options on a toggle

I fixed a forumite's 820 a few months back and fell in love with it .... so I built one .... and yes ... that pedal is 10 times larger than it really needs to be ... mine is in a normal 125B enclosure .... here it is with my version of a the old Boss Slow Gear

I've done the Zen Drive with different graphics over the last few years ... here's the Samurai version

last but not least .... my Nobles ODR-1 with a added Bass control

Is that Nolly??

 

[Nigel]

Thor’s Hammer would be a cool name for an OD pedal, with Mårten Eskil Winge graphics.

 

[griff10672]

Is that Nolly??

I don't know who Nolly is ..... that's one of the images that came up when I googled " Soy Boy " lol

 

[jasonP]

Have you done a Timmy or a King of Tone pedal?

I’ll probably have add all 3 of those eventually to my collection, along with with the Planet of the Vapes.

Thanks for the responding back on these suggestions.

 

[SoooRad]

Something akin to the Voodoo Labs Giggity would be my move. Best "Boost" pedal I ever had.

anytime ...

Planet of the Vapes is very useful OD

Just here to say that my signature Griff overdrive never leaves my recording desk. Lightspeed+crunch lab circuit has everything.

Seriously a fantastic piece of gear.

Barber Gain Changer

I do love op amp big muffs. Add on a bass contour/cut knob?
