GuitarPCB SuperDrive 70's Manual

Advertisement

A fantastic all in one combo pedal that fits easily in a 1590DD and can be slipped into a Gig Bag and
taken anywhere to sound fantastic on any rig. Recreate tones produced by Jimmy Page, the Rolling
Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, David Gilmour, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eric Johnson, all in one box.
This board provides the best variety of playable sounds from the 70's and beyond.
The smooth fuzz portion uses easy to find transistors. The dynamics can be controlled by pick attack
using the guitar's volume control. The Overdrive section of this pedal provides a warm Marshall™
style tube crunch. The Boost section is provided by our famous Stage 3 Booster which will provide
clean, usable Boost especially for those long cable runs.
