Overdrive

Dial in responsive, tube-like drive tones with the Hammertone® Breakup Drive. The perfect contender for an always-on pedal, this JFET based overdrive is designed with one focus in mind: replicating the dynamic response of hot tubes right at the edge of saturation. Two selectable clipping modes tailor the drive’s character between light breakup and medium-gain overdrive, each supplying an expressive response that cleans up with lighter picking and breaks up more the harder you strum. An expansive tone control and switchable pre-gain mid boost provide powerful frequency shaping tools to hone your final tone. From flavoring your core clean tone to delivering dynamic overdrive on tap, the Hammertone Breakup Drive has you covered.

Armed with FET technology, this pedal lets you dial in sounds varying from “just a little hairy” all the way to thick, fully saturated overdrive. The flexible tone controls unlock a wide range of sonic flavors. This pedal cleans up with the guitar’s volume control, just like our famous amplifiers.
