    Versatile, excellent tone and built quality

    Excellent tone and built quality. This pedal is very versatile - with the gain set low, it adds a nice warm, transparent overdrive, and as you increase the gain/add treble, the pedal provides nice distortion. I have been playing with the gain at about 11 o'clock, the treble at about 2 o'clock, and the output at about 11'clock. The pedal is about the size of two regular pedals, but using the extra space is well worth it!

    Beyond expectations.

    Great cleans. Use a Micro Dark Orange amp and just gives it that boost you never know you needed, also use Eras distortion pedal chained after just amaszing

Harmonix - Hot Wax Dual Overdrive Pedal HOT WAX - Silver

Electro-Harmonix Hot Wax Dual Overdrive. The next evolution in inspired overdrives! Awesome on guitar and bass, the EHX Hot Wax fuses our Hot Tubes and Crayon pedals into one powerful dual-overdrive. Each section can be engaged independently, for two very different overdrive flavors, or together to create a massive overdriven sound.

Blend control lets you blend in your dry signal which is especially useful on bass guitar. Master EQ section features Bass and Treble for increased tonal control and flexibility. Quiet pop-free foot switching. Power adapter included. Product Features: Vol Knob (Hot Tubes): Sets the master output level. Drive Knob (Hot Tubes): Sets the intensity. Vol Knob (Crayon): If only the Crayon is active, the VOL knob sets the master output level.

Bass Equalization Knob: Boosts or cuts low frequencies. Treble Equalization Knob: Boosts or cuts high frequencies. Blend Knob: Mixes the dry and distorted signal. Output Jack: 1/4" audio output.

Warm Audio - Warmdrive Overdrive Guitar Pedal - Silver
4.3(4)

The Warmdrive is a true reproduction of a highly revered pedal known for delivering the tones of an unattainable overdriven amp. The original pedal is known to go from silky-smooth tones reminiscent of a special overdriven amp at the sweet spot, all the way to sustain-rich distortion. The Warmdrive combines carefully-selected components & true-to-original circuit design to achieve the same tone and sonic profile of the legendary pedal. The secret sauce of the Warmdrive, just like the original, is the unique voice/tone control combination on the stomp box. Giving artists extra versatility, this control allows the player to modify the frequency both before (Voice control) and after (Tone control) the clipping stages.
