U2
|
-
The pedal has nothing to do with the namesake
band, although U2's
Dave Evans might find it quite handy as a
true overdrive / boost geek he is. "U2" is
actually two separate pedals in one body. The
classic overdrive with an active booster. It's
quite a popular combination among guitarists.
And it has many benefits. But the gimmick of
this very pedal is the function that would be
impossible when using two separate effects. It's
the option of the following order. The first
mode is when the booster is first and acts as
the "heater" with a flexible timbre adjustment.
The second mode is when the booster is preceded
by overdrive. In this case the overdrive tone
can be amplified and corrected (in frequencies)
by the active booster.
The unit can be used as the preamp. The two
effects can function combined and separately.
The pedal is assembled with the highest quality
components. It has a transparent, clear and
noiseless sound. Compact and convenient.
U2 is powered with a stabilized adapter (9V up
to 18V). True Bypass.
