Nordland ODR-C Custom Overdrive.

I would call its Condition as Mint, but I'll err on the side of caution, List it as Excellent Condition, and let the Photos do the talking.

Includes original box.


THE SPIEL..................................................................................................................


The Nordland ODR-C Custom Overdrive is built by the original Designer of the original, now highly coveted Noblels ODR-1, Kai Tachibana.

He has now taken that legendary pedal by improving it even more by:

  • Converting it to True Bypass operation

  • Better components:
    • 1% metal film resistors
    • 2% and 5% film capacitors (Wima, Epcos, Kemet) in the signal path
    • solid 6.3mm Cliff (UK) jacks with gold plated contacts
    • gold-plated PCB plugs / sockets
    • High quality potentiometers
    • Special footswitch with a lighter pressure point
  • Smaller solid and closed aluminum housing from Hammond Manufacturing. (Perfect shield against hum and EMC)

  • Higher output volume (without sound change!), So that even in low-gain operation enough level remains.

  • Solid construction with double contacts between main and controller board.

  • 18 volt operation. By operating at voltages between 9 V and 18 V, other timbres are possible. Hard to explain: Just give it a try! The feeling changes.

Then, on top of that, what was added was:

Outside:

  • O.D.C. Overdrive De-Compress:
    A special control for the overdrive stage. This is hard to describe, as this effect is best felt when playing! Overall, I can say that it sounds a bit more open and sounds less compressed. It also gets a bit louder and the proportion of center frequencies increases. At the same time, the harmonic harmonics are reduced and the sound becomes a bit rougher overall. This depends on the position of the drive - so it hardly works in the left position of the drive control. As always applies here: Make only small turns on the O.D.C. control and listen what happens!

  • Lo-Cut:
    So that it sounds less bassy. I follow the request of some ODR-1 users.

  • Mid:
    The frequency range is quite wide and is also a bit down to the trebles. Turning to the right gives a fat and assertive solo sound. When turning to the left corresponding to less centers. Due to the wide frequency range, the frequencies even intersect with the Spectrum controller. There is a lot of space to create good sounds!

Inside:

  • Control Knob for the LED brightness: bright / dimmed (Std: Mid-position)
