Best seller and store favorite! This overdrive has quickly become popular with both customers and staff with its incredible versatility and dynamics.
In a world where the term "transparent overdrive" has been overused, this pedal is truly at home. With musical control over treble and bass, you can set this as the perfect gain step for your amp or why not as a completely clean boost? At higher gain settings and a little rolled off treble and maybe your favorite delay behind, the lead sounds sit like a slap.
Humbucker, single coil or P90 all fit equally well in this and using it as a booster in an already overdriven amplifier is of course no problem at all. In short; a no-nonsense overdrive that fits incredibly well in most contexts!

The Royal Blue Overdrive offers a wide range of dirt from light overdrive to distortion, or, with the Distortion rolled all the way off, can serve as boost with EQ. Filtering is limited on the overdrive to provide a transparent tone that you can tailor with the Treble and Bass knobs.
One of the most valued attributes of an overdrive pedal is touch sensitivity. Like the best boutique amps, at low to moderate distortion levels, the Royal Blue OD lets you determine the amount of breakup by how hard you strike the strings with your pick, and/or by adjusting the volume knob on your guitar. The Royal Blue can add this level of expressiveness to any clean or slightly overdriven amplifier.
(Important: For best results you should not use a buffered pedal between your instrument and the Royal Blue OD.)
