The Browne Amplification Carbon X Dual Overdrive Effect Pedal is a collaboration between Browne and acclaimed guitarist David Ryan Harris, born from a simple question: "Can this be done?"

The Carbon X is a fusion of two of the legendary blue side found in Browne's Protein Drive, in one pedal. Its enhanced design features a right side stripped of some of its sheen and headroom that unleashes a grittier, raw essence, and a left side with a high cut, so the top end is tamed with surgical precision. The result is a pedal that not only embraces the spirit of the original Bluesbreaker but enhances it, delivering a gorgeous sounding take on a classic overdrive.

Carbon X

The Gritador is our version of the classic, the version that our resident genius in chief has tweaked to perfection. He dialed in the midrange to be more nuanced. You still get that classic midrange bump but without some of the inherent nasaliness that can sometimes plague this circuit. He altered the clipping to be slightly less symmetrical. He also tweaked the low end to give it more fullness while still maintaining a tight and punchy low end. 

Why Gritador? Because it means “screamer” in Portuguese.

Gritador

While this pedal originated as the “blue side” of the Protein Dual Overdrive, it is now available as a stand alone pedal. This “blue” pedal has been a favorite of many all over the world and is an incredibly versatile overdrive pedal allowing an incredible amount of drive options from clean boost all the way to screaming overdrive lead tones. 
The Carbon V2 features the addition of a HIGH-CUT toggle. The High-Cut allows you to tame just the right amount of those airy highs in a way that makes stacking two Carbons or a Carbon with the Blue Side of the Protein, a beautiful thing.  It also tames some of the chime and increases flexibility when stacking or using brighter amps.

The Carbon Midnight Black V2

The Protein 2 in 1 Overdrive is a collaboration between David Brown and guitarist/producer Adam Sniegowski.  After years on the road and in the studio using backline amps that could be very inconsistent,  Adam came to Dave wanting to create a dual overdrive that would sound great with any backline he encountered. They started with two drives they loved, stacked well together, but had a few inherent issues. Dave set out to fix those issues without losing the soul of the originals.

Protein Dual Overdrive V3 (Black)

This is a relatively low-gain device, so even with the right-hand knob maxed out you’re not going to fall into a vat of hot fuzz – but as it turns out, you may not even want to push it past halfway. And you may also not want to turn it off: the Carbon can be broadly classed as a transparent overdrive, and it absolutely excels as an always-on enhancer for a clean amp.
