It’s been called anything from “The Emo Pedal” to “The Nashville Pedal” by players, but to me, it’s just my Old Blue.

To be fully transparent (pun intended), I created this overdrive for ME. I wanted a low to medium gain overdrive that could get a lot gainier, more saturated, and thicker in a pinch. It's my always-on low gain drive on my board, but with some girth added via the weight knob and the gain turned up, it can take the place of my 2nd or 3rd gain stage when doing overdubs. I use it to goose my high gain amps when I don't want that screamer-esque mid hump. One time, I was lazy in the studio and used it on bass because it was already plugged in... and it was awesome. Old Blue is my trusty overdrive, so I decided to add it to the Oneder Effects line! I really think you'll dig it.

Contrary to what the name might suggest, this pedal isn't based on a Bluesbreaker or a Blues Driver, but to my ears, it covers the territory of both quite swimmingly. The clipping switch can be thought of as less/more, smooth/open, or vintage/modern voicing to really help Old Blue play nicely with any type of pickups or music genre. The weight knob, similar to that on my Red Ryder Distortion, is very subtle, fine-tunable, and most noticeable at higher gain settings.

Old Blue Overdrive

The Wet Hot American Bummer Delay can do everything from crystal clean digital delay all the way to a verbed-out, modulated, noisy and seasick guitar sound reminiscent of leaving a cassette tape baking in the sun on your dashboard in 1990. If you can’t relate to that last description, I’ll translate it: totally shoegaze and lo-fi. Finally, a Delay pedal for people who hate.. themselves. This pedal is the soundtrack to all the most memorable moments in your life, mostly the bad ones. But it’ll help you make the songs that get you through the struggle.

Wet Hot American

The Old Blue Overdrive from Oneder Effects quickly became a best-seller and a mainstay on player's boards all over the world. Now with the updated circuitry in V2, there's no doubt that Old Blue is one of the most versatile and useful drives on the market. It's your always-on. It's the heft, grit, and sparkle you've been missing from other "transparent" pedals you thought you'd like. It's my desert island pedal and I hate to sound cocky, but it's just the best. I made it that way on purpose. I think you'll really like it.

The clipping toggle is where most of the magic happens, with the familiar PLUS setting (more open, gainy, bright) and MINUS (compressed, smooth). V2 offers a new clipping option (labeled V2) that sits perfectly between the original sounds. It's by far my favorite, and dare I say the most "amp-like." Clipping tonal changes are most noticeable at higher gain settings. The weight contour was also upgraded, making it a much more noticeable sweep, and now allows you to cut low end when you go below noon. Finally, Old Blue CAN get more transparent if you need it! This is a great tool when stacking pedals, using thicker sounding pickups, or goosing a high gain amp. Don't fret, the same thick Old Blue V1 sounds are there from noon to max. Don't be afraid to max out the weight knob, it sounds great, and even adds a bit more gain!

Low gain boost, mid-gain overdrive, or saturated high gain sounds, Old Blue does it all, and does it well. And before you ask, YES, Old Blue loves basses and lower tunings! It's what the internet dubbed "The Emo pedal". Your Nashville session pedal. The pedal that inspires you to finally write that record. Old Blue is ready to be your trusty overdrive.

Onederwall is the first dual pedal from Oneder Effects, featuring an all-new Oneder-flavored Muff circuit in Channel 1 and an updated and expanded Oneder Drive in Channel 2 called the Onederbolt Distortion. With Channel 1 having multiple modes and intensities and Channel 2 being able to go from a boost, to overdrive, to another flavor of fuzzy distortion, the Onederwall is a box full of endless wild gain textures and possibilities. A WALL of sound. It looks like wallpaper.
