Death by Audio – Interstellar Overdriver Editor’s Pick

SOUNDS LIKE A CRANKED 50s TUBE AMP

The Interstellar Overdriver is a true overdrive pedal, designed to blast your amp with your sound. Beautifully transparent and based around a discrete circuit, this pedal is all about the natural, wonderful sound of turning an amp up too loud. It’s specifically constructed to work the same way as old tube amps – the more you turn it up, the better it sounds. The drive knob sweeps from a slight boost to a beautiful, harmonically rich overdrive. For more control, kick back the output volume with the MASTER knob while retaining the sweetness. There are a lot of pedals out there attempting to do this simple, beautiful thing, but this one is the best.
