effect pedal Royal Blue Overdrive - handwired
Return of the Handwired Series
The new and improved Handwired Series pedals feature high-quality through-hole components, Alpha pots and switches, and Switchcraft jacks — all housed in a custom sheet-metal enclosure with top-mounted jacks for easy pedalboard integration. Every Handwired Series pedal is made in Finland with a focus on tone, reliability, and craftsmanship.

Royal Blue Overdrive
The Royal Blue Overdrive covers a wide range of gain, from light overdrive to full-bodied distortion. With the Drive control turned down, it can also serve as a clean boost with EQ. Minimal filtering keeps the tone transparent and allows you to shape it precisely with the Treble and Bass controls.

Touch sensitivity is a defining trait of this pedal. Like the finest boutique amplifiers, the Royal Blue responds dynamically to your playing — the harder you pick, the more it breaks up. You can also control the drive level from your guitar’s volume knob, giving you a wide expressive range even without touching the pedal.

Controls
-Volume: Sets the overall output level of the pedal.
-Drive: Adjusts the amount of distortion.
-Bass: Boost/cut “shelving” type EQ controlling the low-end response.
-Treble: Boost/cut “shelving” type EQ controlling the high-end response.
