Custom Modified Overdrive Pedal

Tone, tone, tone, and more tone. That is what guitar players strive for, the perfect, and somewhat elusive killer tone. Well, the MXR Custom Badass Modified Overdrive has come to the rescue. It is exactly what its name implies a classic overdrive circuit with custom modifications with improved performance and versatility. besides the typical volume, tone and gain controls the Custom Badass Modified OD adds a 100Hz boost/cut knob and a Bump switch that engages an alternate voicing EQ that boost the low and mid frequencies. The MXR Custom Badass Modified Overdrive works great with slightly overdriving a clean amp, or sending an overdriven amp over the edge!





MXR Custom Badass Modified Overdrive Features:
  • Modified classic-overdrive circuit
  • 100Hz boost/cut knob
  • Bump switch that adds a bump in the mid and low EQ ranges
  • True bypass
  • Road-ready metal case

The MXR Custom Badass Modified Overdrive is one slick overdrive pedal that is ready for anything from rock to blues and beyond!

All The Tone

by Parker Denny from West Lafayette, IN USA
February 20, 2012
Music Background: Hobbyist, Pedal Collector
Needless to say, the four knobs and one button this pedal has to offer gives you all of the tone control you will ever need for whatever the situation. The "Bump" button gives a great boost to the low... read more [+] end of your signal and takes your guitar from rockin the house to shaking the house. In addition, this pedal also works well with MXR's Custom Badass '78 Distortion pedal. close [-]

Best OD pedal

I have tried many OD pedals and this one is by far the best I have used. You can dial in many amazing tones. I can't say enough good about it. Buy one! It looks great too!

Awesome overdrive pedal

by Catfish from Central FL
January 17, 2012
Music Background: Hobbyist / bedroom player
I bought this because my current OD (Boss SD-1) pedal always had a "thin" sound and I didn't find it very useful for much of anything. Based on the demo videos of this MXR pedal, I thought it might m... read more [+]aintain significant low end response while provided the required boost when needed, and I was correct.

The sound of the pedal is simply amazing, and has loads of both volume and gain on tap, so you can use it for a clean volume boost, or make some real aggressive tones by dialing in some gain. The 100Hz knob makes it really easy to dial in the low end, and the bump button provides a huge boost to low end frequencies. close [-]

The Tone in Your Head

by Dax from Palatine, IL

Music Background: Gigging musician.
1. It's very transparent and allows your amp's tone to shine through.
2. Extremely flexible. Between the "Bump" switch and 100Hz knob, you will get where you need to go.
3. Nice small ... read more [+]form factor. Built like a tank. Very cool color.
4. Lots of output (volume, not to be confused with gain).

On my two channel, "smaller gig" combo, I use it as a 1.5 channel, in between clean and high gain. On my 3 channel head (clean, OD, high gain), I use it as a volume/gain boost for solos.

Rarely am I able to purchase something and be 100% happy with it. This got me there. I was easily able to get the tone in my head. It's a smoother than a TS-9, but still has plenty of bite to compete. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

Ninety-five percent of everything in this studio came from Sweetwater. My Sales Engineer is a lifesaver. I started working with him around 2005, talking to him about what my vision was for the studio. He was right there all the way.
