Sharkbomb Audio Stratum Overdrive 2026

The word stratum refers to layers, often in rock formations. The Stratum Overdrive embodies this concept by offering two distinct TS-style overdrive circuits that can be used individually or stacked for ultimate tonal flexibility. With tailored EQ controls on each channel, the Stratum lets you sculpt your tone layer by layer, delivering rich, midrange-heavy overdrive to your pedalboard.

THE SOUND

• Channel 1: A bright, sparkly overdrive with a bass knob to control low-end saturation. This channel excels at adding weight and shimmer to your tone. Dial back your guitar’s volume for less clipping while maintaining a dynamic, grainy character.
• Channel 2: A darker, more saturated overdrive with a clarity knob to enhance definition. This channel focuses on smooth, usable highs and a warm, rich tone.
• Stack Them Together: Engage both channels for a supercharged, gnarly overdriven sound. The cascading circuits add depth and complexity to your tone, making it perfect for searing solos or powerful rhythm work.

FEATURES

• Two Independent Channels: Each channel features Gain, Tone, and Volume controls, with Channel 1 offering a Bass knob and Channel 2 equipped with a Clarity knob.
• Effect Order Switch: Toggle the order of the two circuits to customize how they interact. Use one to boost the other for unique cascading overdrive tones.
