Great Eastern FX Small Speaker Overdrive Pedal

left in stock in

Low in store inventory, may be subject to change

This Great Eastern FX Co. - Small Speaker Overdrive is an OD that's delivers on that small combo, Americana sound heard on countless recordings. A very usable pedal, the Small Speaker Overdrive shines with the LOW control turned down, mimicking the frequency response and focused mids of the quintessential small-speaker-tweed-champ sound. Turn the LOW up for a nice, full overdrive, which makes it fun to experiment across the whole range of the pedal. Great new stuff from a new brand here at the store. 

From Great Eastern FX Co:
The SSO's controls are designed to be useful across their entire range, so experimentation is actively encouraged.

Adjusting the GAIN knob takes the pedal from almost clean, through edge-of-breakup tones to saturated overdrive. The SSO is very sensitive to playing dynamics and volume knob adjustments. If you wish, you can use the GAIN control to set the maximum amount of overdrive then explore a range of clean and dirty textures directly from the guitar.

The LOW control lets you add more bass and body to the tone, or rein in that low end for classic, characterful small amp sounds. From a starting point around 9 o'clock, there's plenty of scope to boost lows if required.

The HIGH knob provides precise control over presence and bite. Starting from 12 o'clock, turn the control clockwise to boost highs. Conversely, rolling off the high end lets you emphasise the mid-range – great for smooth, singing slide tones.
