SlackJaw Overdrive by SynapticGroove
The SlackJaw is a very versatile overdrive. It can be used as a boost, an overdrive, and even a fuzz! The SlackJaw is composed of the best voicing that overdrive, boost, and fuzz pedals have ever offered - in a singular design. It is flexible enough to work well with single coils or humbuckers, as well as tube amps or solid state amps. Like the Snapperhead, the SlackJaw has a wide range of sounds from mild to aggressive, all while sounding very organic and rich with great punch and clarity.
Controls
- Level Knob - Controls the output level, or volume, of the effect.
- Gain Knob - From 0 - Noon, the pedal responds much like a standard sweeping drive, found in most overdrive/distortion pedals. However, from Noon to Full, it will yield more aggressive and heavier fuzz tones.
- Upper Switch (3-way) - Left Position (Compression), will add a little bit of compression to the signal, resulting in a more controlled sound at lower volumes and some very heavy clipping at higher gain levels. Middle Position (Boost), will result in a large volume boost, great for pushing your amp into overdrive. Right Position (Saturation), gives a more lush tonal voicing.
- Lower Switch (2-way) - Left Position (Bass Boost), results in a very defined increase in bass response with a slightly increased output in volume for lower frequencies. This is great for the neck pickup, 7-string, and baritone guitars. Right Position (Bass Cut), reduces bass emphasis and spotlights clarity and harmonically rich tonal characteristics.
SynapticGroove takes a unique approach to aesthetics and your SlackJaw will have a well-loved worn in look to it. The SlackJaw is true-bypass.
