MAD PROFESSOR SWEET HONEY OVERDRIVE - Factory made!

Overdrive Effekt Pedal

 

Der einzig legitime Nachfolger des "BJF HONEY BEE OVERDRIVE" Pedals!!! 

Das Mad Professor Sweet Honey Overdrive ist genau wie die Honigbiene ein Anschlags dynamisches „ Low Gain" Overdrive Pedal. Der Verzerrungsgrad des Pedals kann durch die Anschlagsstärke und Ausgangsleistung des Pickups beeinflusst werden. Harter Anschlag für Overdrive Sounds und leichter Anschlag für cleanere Sounds.  Der einzigartige Focus Regler bestimmt die Anschlagsdynamik und die generelle EQ Einstellung.  Wie alle Mad Professor Pedale wird das SHOD Pedal per Handarbeit in Finnland hergestellt. Hierbei kommen nur sorgfältig ausgewählte Komponenten zum Einsatz welche auf viele Jahre einen sorgenfreien Betrieb garantieren. Da die Fertigungsmethode des Mad Professor Sweet Honey Overdrive - Factory Made vereinfacht wurde, kann das Pedal nun deutlich preisgünstiger angeboten werden, klingt aber trotzdem wie die handgefertigten Finnland-Modelle. 

Features:

 

 

Mad Professor Sweet Honey Overdrive (SHOD) is a touch sensitive low gain overdrive pedal hand made in Finland.

It is designed to overdrive distorted amplifiers and give dynamically controlled light overdrive on clean sounds.

Distortion level can be controlled by pick attack and pickup strenght. Harder picking for overdrive and softer for cleaner tone.

With the unique Focus control you can adjust the feel and dynamics of the pedal as well as overal EQ.

Turning Focus CCW you need to play harder to get distortion and the tone is softer, great for jazz and blue.

Focus turned CW gives a slight treble boost and earlier distortion.

This type of overdrive has previously only been found in the BJF Honey Bee but is now presented in Mad Professor version. The Mad Professor SHOD has a tighter sound and is more versatile as it was designed to work with all kinds of guitars and amplifiers.

Like all Mad Professor pedals, SHOD is hand made in Finland using only premium components, to give years of trouble free operation with superb musical tone.

...and here is some further information to the sound of the old BJF HONEY BEE:

The BJF Honey BEE overdrive was inspired by an old Supro amp, there is special kind of warm mild overdrive that you can't find from any other amp (or pedal what so ever).
Works very well with other pedals or distorting amp giving this fat and warm overdrive character.

The pedal is also super dynamic, from clean to overdrive just by using different touch of your hand.

Some user comments:
"I love it - like you said its a low gain boost, almost more of a flavor (Honey) and does some unique things.... "
"Yes its funny how different it reacts to humbuckers or a hefty drive infront of it - its almost like blowing up a ballon as the density and translucency changes the more you put into it....."

"I have it on ALL the time"

"it's a very nice pedal. i always get positive feedback from sound men and audience members regarding it's tone."

"and its a really nice pedal to put after other drives and fuzzes, it has a smoothing and sweetening effect when something is driven into it..... and depending on how you play it, it can sit on the edge of clean and lightly distorted and controlled with pick dynamics....."
Its also become my fuzz tamer of sorts, it sort of combines with a raging fuzz to make a Drive sound that has the hair and swirl of the fuzz and the steadier chunk of a drive but you can still use your guitar volume to manipulate it.... things like the Candy Apple Fuzz and the McFuzz HOT and some vintage fuzzes are an especially good match.........."

"And oddly enough it is really good by itself for Jazzer playing, it has that nice round slightly thickened almost distorted sound you hear on old Jazz recording ... "
