FREE THE TONE has released an OVERDRIVE pedal that has undergone continuous evolution over 20 years and has attracted many guitarists. One of those pedals is the "SOV/OVERDRIVE". While there were several variations of the SOV, the final form "CUSTOM SERIES/SOV-2" was discontinued in 2018, much to the regret of many. Five years have passed since then, and after a long development period, the SOV is finally evolving into the SOV-3. While the SOV-3 is still in development, the decision was made to revive the SOV-2 by producing a small quantity and selling it through the FREE THE TONE CUSTOM SHOP (as of April 22, 2023).

The "SOV-2/OVERDRIVE" adopts a high-performance DC-DC converter in its internal power circuit, boosting the voltage input at 9Vdc to ±15Vdc, supplying the signal circuit and operating it. This allows for an overwhelming dynamic range, reproducing the sound and characteristics of the guitar, delicate picking nuances, and hand touch as differences in tone while applying a natural drive. This OVERDRIVE pedal reproduces the soft harmonics and rich drive sound that vacuum tubes possess, and that is the "SOV-2/OVERDRIVE".
