The Rocktron O.D.B. Overdrive Dynamic Blues Guitar Effects Pedal provides the best blues tone and unparalleled dynamic control in a pedal package. You get total control over the most subtle nuances.Part of the Rocktron Boutique Series of stomp boxes, this pedal design comes in a rugged metal chassis with eye popping retro custom design laser etched artwork. This is a TRUE BYPASS pedal: when you turn it offit is out of your signal path.The ODB provides two Germanium clipping diodes that may be independently assigned to provide soft knee clipping compression applied to the positive cycle of the overdrive output, negative cycle of the overdrive output, or both. This gives you total control of the overdrive characteristics providing even/odd harmonic enhancement produced when Assymetric clipping is present.Sounds complicated, but really it is simple in that you will love the tone. Germanium diodes are known for their magical soft clipping properties. Assigning both plus and minus diodes produces Symmetrical clipping, (both halves of the overdrive output waveform have equal volume). Assigning only one of the diodes produces Assymetrical clipping, (one half of the overdrive output waveform is larger than the other, thus producing more harmonic tones).The ODB has a Drange Control which determines how much Soft Knee Clipping is applied. Drive Control adjusts the Overdrive gain (before the Germanium diode circuitry).The ODB features a Germanium Diode switch. Plus (+) applies clipping to the positive portion of overdrive. Minus (-) applies clipping to the negative portion of overdrive.The Output knob adjusts the final Output Gain (0db to +3dBu). The Tone knob adjusts final High Frequency. On/Off LED shows if the pedal is on or off. When the LED is lit, the pedal is on.Output jack provides the summed output of the effect. Use a guitar cable to plug into the next effect or into a guitar amplifier.The footswitch on the Guitar Silencer controls On/Off status (indicated by the LED). This stomp box runs on a 9V Alkaline battery. You may also use the Rocktron DC OnTap Universal Power Adaptor (our sku# 158004). Minimize

SPIT controls fuzz audio ON duty cycle time (or the spitting effect). STRIKE controls the fuzz attack time. VENOM controls the fuzz sustain time. LEVEL controls the fuzz output level. In fact, when the BITE control is turned up, the snake eyes react to your playing dynamics adding LED clipping and compression.The Cottonmouth Fuzz will rock your world and bring you a wild new fuzz box that you cant resist.The footswitch on the Cottonmouth Fuzz controls On/Off status (indicated by the LED).

Rocktron introduces another unique stompbox with the Sweet Spot Fixed Wah pedal. Many players today utilize their wah pedal to accent their overall sound, rather than using it specifically to create a wah-wah effect. By choosing a particular setting with their wah pedal, players are able to find that sweet spot they love.Now, Rocktron brings the Sweet Spot Fixed Wah pedal to the market, making it easier to access those sweet spots that add so much to your overall tone. Unlike a wah pedal where you have to move the pedal around to find the exact tone you are looking for when playing, the Sweet Spot allows you to dial in the exact tone you desire. You can then access this tone by simply turning on and off the pedal using the footswitch.The Sweet Spot allows you to select from three different wah types Normal, Classic and Bass. Normal is a more modern wah frequency. Classic captures the old vintage wahs of past. Bass is a great selection for 7-string guitars, guitars with low tunings or heavier guage strings, and awesome for bass players seeking that edge!Use the Sweet Spot knob at the top of the unit to adjust the wah frequency of the selected wah type.To make things even sweeter, a Mix control knob is included. This control allows you to a little or a lot of Wah effect to the main signal. Thus, if you only want to have a little bit of Sweet Spot wah frequency added to your main signal, you can mix it in using this knob. If you want more, just turn the knob to the right until it is full on. The tonal possibilities are endless with the Sweet Spot.Part of the Rocktron Boutique Series of stomp boxes this pedal design comes in a rugged metal chassis with eye popping retro custom design laser etched artwork.

Now you can take control of your single coil pickups without having to physically alter your guitar, or purchase various sets of custom pickups. The Rocktron Texas Recoiler Tone Shaping Guitar Effects Pedal is actually a single coil tone shifter. Using a special FET input stage, along with unique filtering techniques, the Texas Recoiler produces better quality tone and response, similar to that of high end, Custom Shop pickups. As an example, players can easily dial in the sought-after SRV mid dip, while adding more kick.Adjustment knobs include Output, which adjusts the final output gain (0db to +3dbU), Frequency, which adjusts the center frequency to affect, Windings, which adjusts the amount of gain produced at the frequency center, and HP Filter, which controls the amount of LOWS that are present. As an extra adjustment, Rocktron has included an internal rear PCB Pot that can be used to adjust the bandwidth of the Windings Filter. This will adjust how narrow or wide the dip effect becomes. The Texas Recoiler may be powered by a 9V Alkaline battery, or the Rocktron DC OnTap Universal Power Supply (see our sku# 158004). Minimize
