Sweet Honey Overdrive, hand-wired, N.O.S.

Brand new old stock, hand-wired Sweet Honey Overdrive pedal.

The Mad Professor Sweet Honey Overdrive (SHOD) is a touch-sensitive low-gain overdrive pedal hand-made in Finland. It is designed to overdrive distorted amplifiers and give dynamically-controlled light overdrive on clean sounds.

Distortion levels can be controlled by pick attack and pickup strength. Harder picking gives more overdrive while softer picking results in a cleaner tone.

With the unique Focus control, you can adjust the feel and dynamics of the pedal as well as overal EQ. Turning the Focus control CCW you need to play harder to get distortion and the tone is softer, which is great for jazz and blues. When the Focus control is turned CW there is a slight treble boost and distortion comes earlier.

This type of overdrive had previously only been found in the BJF Honey Bee, but is now presented in this Mad Professor version. The Mad Professor SHOD has a tighter sound and is more versatile as it was designed to work with all kinds of guitars and amplifiers.

Like all Mad Professor pedals, SHOD is hand made in Finland using only premium components to give years of trouble free operation with superb musical tone.
