Are you looking for an overdrive that is not transparent
and adds its own character and attitude? The Moonshine is for you. Our
Moonshine Overdrive is a highly unique and massively tweaked version of
the most famous overdrive ever created and housed in a little green
enclosure. Blues, rock, country, jazz, and even hardcore/metal players
will find this is an indispensable tool for shaping and creating unique
mid heavy tones for almost any need.
You’ll immediately feel at home with our basic Volume, Tone, and
Drive knobs, so tweak away! The simple 2-position “Proof” toggle gives
you everything from low gain amp-like breakup with powerful colored
boost settings to grinding, heavy overdrive that reaches to the very
edge of cranked amp distortion.
In the down position, you’ll find the highest gain settings, lots of
saturation and sustain and the most mid-range goo available. In the up
position are the more open and forceful crunchy tones that will make any
amp beg for mercy. The up position also adds more overall volume and
more headroom to those searching for cleaner applications. The tone
control goes down as smooth as Grandpa’s White Lightning, with none of
the harsh ice-pick characteristics that many overdrives have in the
brighter settings.
Just like our SuperBolt
pedal, the Moonshine uses an internal 9v to 18v charge pump that allows
it to run on normal 9v but converting it internally to 18v for an
enormous amount of headroom, added low-end and more overall punch.
We wouldn’t be surprised if this is the most girthy, thick overdrive
you have ever plugged into. If you’re a fan of stacking overdrives,
you’ll love putting this in front of or behind your favorite drive,
booster, or fuzz. The Moonshine delivers on any style amp, easily
producing anything from SRV classic Stratocaster/Fender amp tones with
class to huge “wall of rock” The Edge-style force through a Vox. On
another note, you might find a few Dumble-esque lead settings that will
have you feeling like you saved a cool $100,000 in search of that sacred
tone. Last but not least, it kills on bass guitar, the reason it was
originally designed.
This pedal requires standard 9V DC Negative power and measures 2.2"x4.3"x1.5"
