MXR Gran Torino Boost Overdrive Pedal เอฟเฟคก้อน

The MXR Gran Torino Boost Overdrive is a pedal designed to deliver classic, tube amp-style breakup with a highly responsive and dynamic feel. Its core is built around MOSFET technology, making it more than just a simple dirt box; it’s a tone-shaping tool that reacts beautifully to the nuances of your playing.

Functions & Features

1. MOSFET Technology: This is the heart of the Gran Torino’s sound, providing a warm, smooth, and very tube-like response. It’s touch-sensitive, meaning it cleans up when you play softly and breaks up naturally as you dig in with your pick.
2. BOOST / DRIVE Mode Switch: This key feature provides exceptional versatility, effectively giving you two pedals in one.
   • BOOST Mode: In this mode, the pedal acts as a high-headroom clean boost. It adds volume and body to your signal while preserving its original clean character, making it perfect for solos or pushing a tube amp into natural saturation.
   • DRIVE Mode: This mode engages a classic, smooth overdrive circuit. It introduces a touch of compression and a rich, saturated texture, ideal for crafting core drive tones for blues, rock and roll, and classic rock.
3. Intuitive 3-Knob Layout:
   • OUTPUT: This is the master volume control for the pedal, adjusting the overall output level.
   • GAIN: This knob controls the amount of grit and distortion. It ranges from completely clean (fully counter-clockwise) to a warm, gritty overdrive.
   • TONE: This shapes the high-frequency content (EQ). Turn it left for a warmer, darker tone perfect for rhythm playing, or turn it right for a brighter, more cutting tone that helps solos slice through the mix.
4. True Bypass Switching: Ensures that your guitar’s pure signal passes through unaffected when the pedal is switched off, with zero tone loss.
5. Rugged MXR Construction: Built in a road-ready housing, the Gran Torino is designed to withstand the rigors of touring and frequent gigging, just as you’d expect from MXR.

Applications (How to Use)

• Always-On Tone Shaper: Use it as a foundational part of your tone, leaving it on to give your signal the warmth and feel of a quality tube amp.
• Clean Boost: Set it to BOOST mode to kick in for solos, or to push the front end of your tube amp for more organic breakup.
• Standalone Overdrive: Use DRIVE mode as your main drive sound for genres that require low-to-medium gain, such as Blues, Classic Rock, or Pop-Rock.
• Stacking: It pairs exceptionally well with other drive pedals. Place it before a fuzz to tighten the sound, or after a distortion to act as a lead boost.
