TUBE AMP-STYLE DRIVE

The GAMMA Series ATLAS Boosted Overdrive pedal imbues your guitar tone with the definition, sustain, and harmonic enrichment you’d find in a vintage tube amplifier. ATLAS preserves the dynamics of your playing while adding bite and sustain, for articulate tone that responds to the nuances of your playing style. The ATLAS Boosted Overdrive pedal adds grit and sustain to clean amplifier tones, and can push an amp at the edge of breakup into full distortion for lead tones that soar.

BOOST FOR EXTA BITE AND IMPACT

Thanks to its Boost switch, the ATLAS Boosted Overdrive pedal offers two distinct flavors of tube-like overdrive. Use the Boost switch to send your tone over the top, with enhanced low-frequency girth and high-frequency bite. With the Boost switch disengaged, the ATLAS Boosted Overdrive offers classic mid-focused drive tone that cuts through the mix.

Guitar Player Editors' Pick

“This is a surprisingly balanced and open-sounding overdrive pedal, with lots of shimmer and harmonic enhancement plus plenty of clarity throughout the gain range. And it all gets delightfully more so with the Boosted switch engaged, without going overly squishy or hairy. What’s more, there’s a sweetness and musicality to it that holds up quite well against many boutique overdrives costing two or three times this much.”
