The Jackson Audio Golden Boy Transparent Overdrive is a versatile boutique pedal designed in collaboration with Canadian alt-country star Joey Landreth. Based on the celebrated Bluesbreaker/King of Tone circuit, it delivers a rich, open, and transparent overdrive that preserves your guitar’s natural tone while adding dynamic grit and harmonic detail. Featuring four distinct clipping diode modes, an innovative GAIN CYCLE function for instant gain adjustment in four steps, and a powerful 3-band active Baxandall EQ, the Golden Boy offers exceptional tonal flexibility. It also includes a separately switchable MOSFET boost circuit with four EQ’d boost styles and full MIDI control over all parameters. Handbuilt in Texas, USA, this pedal is perfect for guitarists seeking modern transparent overdrive with classic roots and advanced features.
