Digitech DOD Overdrive Preamp 250 - 50th Anniversary Pedal

The Digitech DOD Overdrive Preamp 250 - 50th Anniversary Edition celebrates the iconic original 250 pedal that was first released in 1974 and became one of the most influential overdrive pedals of all time. It shaped the sound of rock and metal in the late 70s and early 80s and remains an important part of music history. This limited anniversary edition not only offers the legendary sound of the original, but adds modern sonic versatility that makes it a must-have pedal for players and collectors alike.

The Overdrive Preamp 250 - 50th Anniversary Edition is actually three overdrive pedals in one. You can choose between three different modes: the Silicon mode for a faithful reproduction of the classic bite and sharpness of the original, the Ge/ASYM mode for asymmetrical clipping with a germanium diode and the Lift mode, which removes the diode clipping and makes the pedal usable as a clean boost and preamp.

3 overdrives in one pedal

The Overdrive Preamp 250 - 50th Anniversary Edition offers a variety of sound options by choosing between three different modes:

• Silicon mode: this mode offers an original, authentic reproduction of the bite and edge of the original 250 pedal, thanks to the LM741 op-amp.
• Ge/ASYM mode: By using a germanium diode for asymmetrical clipping, you get a distinctive tonal character with incredible attack and warmer, rounder tones.
• Lift mode: This mode completely removes diode clipping from the signal path, allowing the pedal to act as a clean boost and preamp, making it ideal for high levels and precise sound modulation.

Mod-friendly components for individual adjustments

The pedal is equipped with a socketed LM741 op-amp for easier modification - just like the original DOD 250. The use of through-hole components allows you to customize and modify the pedal to your own liking, making it a great choice for sound tinkerers and creative players.
