GAMMA Atlas Boosted Overdrive Effects Pedal
Model: GMPDA

Brandishing the potent strength of mythological Greek titan Atlas—who bore the entire universe on his shoulders—the GAMMA Atlas Boosted Overdrive has the power to elevate your guitar tone from a stout growl to a resounding roar. Created to produce fat, tube-amp-inspired grind, Atlas is one of six stompboxes in our exclusive GAMMA guitar effects pedals line—which also includes the Bacchus Dynamic Driver, Cumulus 3-Way Reverb, Eros Clean Chorus, Hades Metal Distortion and Narcissus Warm Delay. 

All pedals in the GAMMA guitar effects series feature stunning metal-flake finishes, gig-resilient chassis and knobs, scrupulously curated circuitry and buffered bypass (for consistent tone and signal output), as well as a compact size that won’t devour real estate on your pedalboard. Each GAMMA pedal can be run from a 9-volt battery or power supply (battery and DC adapter not included). In addition, we are extremely aware that the last thing players want is for their gear to crumble under pressure, so the GAMMA line was designed to defy the rigors of constant use and to sound sensational every time you plug in to play.

Atlas Boosted Overdrive Controls and Features

The GAMMA Atlas Boosted Overdrive provides three of the typical control knobs (Level, Tone and Drive), but adds a secret sonic weapon—a Boosted/Normal switch. This feature isn’t merely a conventional level boost for hitting your amp’s front end harder or adding a soaring volume increase. While there is a slight level surge when Boosted is engaged, the switch is actually a tonal enhancement that simultaneously lifts up the low-and high-midrange frequencies, allowing players to bring on a warm, vintage crunch (Normal) or fire off some modern rock savagery (Boosted).

GAMMA pedals are also designed to endure the hardships of real-world use. Electrical footswitching protects against audible noise and other glitching that can sometimes occur when a mechanical switch begins to wear out. Buffered bypass ensures a strong and consistent signal is sent to the other pedals in your chain, so there shouldn’t be any volume dips or other anomalies when you swap or add effects on the fly. The heavy-duty metal chassis and knobs are durable enough to withstand being kicked off stages, tossed into gig bags and any other abuses that can occur during live gigs, studio sessions and gear transport.

How Does the Altas Boosted Overdrive Sound?

The Atlas Boosted Overdrive can emulate the organic crunch of a tube combo at its subtler settings, or you can dime the Drive to mimic the raging bark of a full stack. But you don’t have to turn knobs to change your tone. As the Atlas is an incredibly responsive overdrive, you can add colors with just your performance gestures. Increase your pick attack for an articulate bite, or strum softly for a jagged shimmer. If you change pickups, the sound won’t be muddled by the Atlas’ drive—you’ll still hear all of the warmth provided by your neck pickup and the bright, aggressive sheen of the bridge pickup. The Atlas Boosted Overdrive delivers what every renowned drive pedal is celebrated for—presenting the sonic illusion of an actual tube amp.

Power User Tips for Overdrive Pedals

Although the Atlas Boosted Overdrive isn’t meant to offer a significant level increase, you can deploy it as a slight boost with attitude (meaning with some grit, rather than a pristine leap in volume) by turning Drive all the way down, Level all the way up and engaging the Boosted switch. Thanks to its natural crunch, you can also use the Atlas to mimic an additional amp channel. Simply set a one-channel amp to clean and stomp on Atlas for that creamy overdrive. Or, transform a two-channel amp into a three-channel beast by setting up clean and dirty channels, and letting Atlas boost the grind.

Optimum Overdrive

The GAMMA Atlas Boosted Overdrive has the galactic muscle for punching up riffs, adding chunk and gristle to chord progressions and energizing single-note lines. While the word “gamma” denotes the third letter of the Greek alphabet, it also stands for three pertinent reasons why GAMMA guitar effects pedals deliver extraordinary tone, tough-as-a-tank manufacturing and fantastic value:

Hades Metal Distortion Controls and Features

The Hades Metal Distortion has the obvious Level and Drive controls, but escalates its sonic mastery with EQ knobs for Bass, Mid and Treble. No matter how much saturation you choose to unleash, you can tailor the tone to rage clearly, coherently and with maximum impact. GAMMA pedals are also designed to endure the hardships of real-world use. Electrical footswitching protects against audible noise and other glitching that can sometimes occur when a mechanical switch begins to wear out. Buffered bypass ensures a strong and consistent signal is sent to the other pedals in your chain, so there shouldn’t be any volume dips or other anomalies when you swap or add effects on the fly.

How Does the Hades Metal Distortion Sound?

The Hades is a versatile beast that can set loose extreme black metal tones, as well as sounds that evoke old-school hard rock, scooped-mid onslaughts and industrial music snarl and growl. The secret weapon is Hades’ midrange control. Parked at its low settings, the tone conjures sunless Scandinavian winters. At higher midrange settings, you’ve moved to British steel. Backing off the mids puts you into American metal territory. Aggressive scooped-mid sounds are easy to dial in, and, despite the onslaught of saturation, Hades can clearly illuminate performance techniques such as million-mile-an-hour shredding, palm muting chords, staccato punches and melodic single-note lines.

Power User Tips for Distortion Pedals

The tonal versatility of Hades opens up options for all kinds of metal mania, so the most appropriate user tip is to exploit that flexibility to craft every fierce tone the pedal can deliver. Of course, given that Hades’ saturation can be tweaked to be clear and articulate at almost all levels of ferocious grind, it’s a pedal that works exceptionally well with other effects. For example, thicken up riffs by adding the Eros Clean Chorus, or induce ambient rage via the Cumulus 3-Way Reverb, or release soaring shred lines with the help of the Narcissus Warm Delay.

Feral Distortion

The GAMMA Hades Metal Distortion can rain hellfire upon lackluster guitar tones, granting them the feral power of saturation, punch and articulation.

Supro 1305 Drive Guitar Effects Pedal
Model: SUPRO 1305

No other pedal sounds more like a real Supro amp than the Supro Drive. This groundbreaking analog pedal re-creates the circuitry of a Supro amp, from end to end, including an actual output transformer. As the Supro sound has gained widespread popular recognition as a pillar of classic rock guitar tone, numerous amp and pedal companies claim to have captured its coveted sound by cloning the original Supro preamp, in stompbox format. The real tone of a genuine Supro amp however, has everything to do with the unique phase inverter design, Class A power amp section and the magnetic saturation that occurs via the old-school transformers found in these vintage tone machines. In short, the iconic sound of a Supro amp being pushed into overdrive has everything to do with the POWER AMP.

Harnessing the expertise developed through re-imagining and successfully manufacturing the 1960s Supro tube amplifier lineup, Supro USA has captured the legendary magic of a Supro tube amp by completely re-thinking their approach to stompbox design. Rather than approximating the sound of their amps using standard techniques, engineer Thomas Elliot created an all-new circuit which mimics every aspect of the Supro tube amp. This unique approach yields the most realistic-sounding overdrive pedal they've ever made, with greater range of gain, dynamics and natural compression than the Tube Screamer, Klon or any of their many derivatives. The Supro 1305 Drive guitar rffects pedal is an original, landmark design that raises the bar for overdrive pedals.

The Supro 1305 Drive guitar effects pedal sports a simple control layout with Volume, Gain and Tone knobs, as well as a toggle switch to select between the different windings of our custom, multi-tapped output transformer—either for high-headroom BOLD sounds, or more compressed, high-gain RICH tones. Taking the overdrive pedal platform one step further, the Supro 1305 Drive offers a TRS port for expression pedal control of the GAIN knob. With the expression pedal in use, the onboard GAIN knob sets the maximum value, while a user-adjustable, internal trimmer sets the minimum gain setting. All Supro pedals are assembled in Port Jefferson, NY, USA, featuring custom-tooled, anodized, brushed-aluminum enclosures, 9V battery or AC powered operation, rear-mounted metal jacks, easy-access side-mounted battery drawer and studio-friendly, noiseless (click-free) true-bypass switching
