Tell me about the Throbak Overdrive Boost

it's an excellent pedal and is very versatile.

i had one for a while but eventually sold it.

 

the only thing i didn't like was that it has so many features and performs equally well at several different things, that i was constantly tweaking the controls... i couldn't make my mind up about using it as a boost or fuzz, or in silicon or germanium modes... maybe i should have just bought 3 of the things!! :lol:

It's awesome. Very versatile. Still getting to know mine. Lets just say it sounded killer in several different applications. As an overdrive, I liked it better than my Tim. As a dirty/fuzzy boost I think it's going to beat out my COT50. As a mid boost in front of a Fuzz Face, amazing. For fuzz tones on its own I think I like it more than Fuzz Face types. Looking forward to trying it stacked with my Big Muff. The Big Muff > Colorsound Power Boost stack was supposedly what Gilmour used in the studio for the Comfortably Numb solos.

With the ODB theres so many sound options I'm finding myself constantly finding what I'm looking for. It's really been a stand out pedal. Get one and and play around, it might take a bit to get used to how everything interacts but it's magic when you do!
