A great opportunity at Kitarshokak for collectors and lovers of true vintage tone. This original 1970s Colorsound Overdriver is much more than a pedal: it’s part of British sound history. It’s truly a tonal foundation, a preamp that delivers the character of a real amplifier rather than just behaving like a simple pedal. It’s magical, imperfect, raw, authentic, and inspiring. Plug it into a plugin or an amplifier and you’ll see.

Manufactured in the UK during the golden era of analog effects, the Overdriver is known for its huge headroom, exceptional dynamic response, and a tonal character impossible to replicate with modern pedals. It can work as a clean boost, open overdrive, or even reach fuzz-like territories, always maintaining a three-dimensional and organic sound.

It is closely associated with guitarists like David Gilmour, Jeff Beck, or Marc Bolan, forming part of the DNA of some of the most iconic rock tones and the sound of their early records.

Ideal for:

• Vintage pedal collectors
• Studios looking for real analog character
• Demanding guitarists who prioritize tone above all

 

Specifications:

• Original vintage electronics
• Wide range: boost, overdrive, and harmonically rich saturation
