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.
