Maxon OD-808X Overdrive guitar effect pedal

Maxon OD-808X

For over 30 years Maxon’s legendary "808" overdrive circuit has been an essential ingredient to achieving great guitar tone. Whether it’s used as a booster to drive an amp, as a Dirt box for crunch and extra sustain or as an EQ to shape the tone of a high-gain amp, the 808 in its many incarnations has shown up in more rigs and on more recordings than anyone would care to count. Yet for all its legendary status, there are some who wish the 808 offered just a little bit more – and for those players obsessed with excess, Maxon has created the OD808X Overdrive Extreme.
The Extreme shares the same basic circuit architecture as the OD808. However, several key component values have been altered to achieve what may be the ultimate overdrive tone.
The OD808X offers a wider frequency response than a stock OD808, with an extended hi-frequency tonal range that offers additional clarity without becoming harsh.

Features:

• Modified version of classic OD808 Overdrive
• Extended frequency response improves note definition and clarity
• Increased Output (+5 dB over OD808) for extra Volume Boost
• Harder clipping yields more aggressive, amp-like Distortion
• Buffered Bypass Switching

Specifications:

• Power supply: 9V
• Dimensions: 152.40 x 147.32 x 63.50 mm
