The Danelectro The Breakdown is a compact analog boost and overdrive pedal. It recreates the rare 1968 Univox UD-50 Uni-Drive, famously rumored to be used by legendary guitar gods like Jimmy Page and Jimi Hendrix. It delivers a massive signal boost to slam the front of your amplifier.

Key Specs & Features

  • Circuitry: Analog.
  • Transistors: Three 2N3904 silicon transistors.
  • Controls:
    • Volume: Controls the master output level.
    • Break-Up: A 6-way rotary switch. Positions 1 to 3 act as a subtle, "always-on" clean boost. Positions 4 to 6 increase the gain progressively, resulting in aggressive overdrive and fuzzy, expressive distortion.
  • Bypass: True bypass with relay switching (your signal stays clean when the pedal is off).
  • Gain: Pushes up to 35 dB of gain
