mint DANELECTRO THE BREAKDOWN OVERDRIVE

Rewind to 1968. Famous guitar god uses this pedal to record his first album. Entire planet goes nuts. Inexplicably, the pedal then disappears. Until now. Danelectro® resurrects this awesome, incredibly organic sounding pedal. 6 position “Break Up” control takes your ­guitar signal and slams the front of your amp with increasing punch. Positions 1 through 3 are ear-friendly and have “leave on all the time” potential. Positions 4 through 6 grab you and knock you back against the nearest piece of ­concrete. But in the most ­pleasant way. Caution: Do not ­listen to this… unless you want it to be your life companion.

With just a volume knob and a 6-way breakup selector, the Danelectro Breakdown overdrive pedal is a no-frills solution for epic tone. The first three positions are intended for "always on" operation, adding increasing amounts of subtle grit and mild compression. Positions four through six kick the gain up a few notches and push the front end of your amp into overdrive. Guitarists love the feel of The Breakdown, which remains expressively responsive no matter how you set the volume and breakup knobs. If you're looking for a gritty overdrive that you won't have to fine-tune to get the best sound, definitely check out the Danelectro Breakdown overdrive pedal.
