The McPherson Antique Overdrive has been developed to achieve an extremely natural, versatile overdrive that offers a creamy smooth tube tone from a clean boost, through to a rich vintage overdrive.
The Antique Overdrive has been designed to act like an extra channel on your amp. Working in naturally with your current setup, to achieve a very transparent and organic break up that is sweet and toneful.
The left footswitch engages the pedal, while the right footswitch engages the boost. This boost utilises our ultra transparent Boost circuitry, ensuring your solo's will be heard with sublime punch and clarity. In addition to this, when the boost is engaged, the front panel drive control is turned off and the rear panel boost drive control is simultaneously turned on. This means you can have a completely independent drive setting for the boost, letting you have more (or less) drive saturation when engaging the boost.
The upper left switch selects between two separately voiced channels. The first channel (switch raised) is voiced for a clearer more refined tone. Its sound a little tighter for clear rhythm work or solo's that cut. The second channel (switch lowered) is phat, organic, warm and is very responsive to playing dynamics. Both channels cover a lot of tonal bases and many styles or guitar types, while still retaining your your own signature sound.
The Antique Overdrive is an excellent choice for the musician who would like to expand their current tone palette, while retaining your own unique musical signature.
