Description

Like new foam, box, warranty card.Hardly used!The DOD Preamp 250 was originally a lightly modified MXR Distortion+ with a few part changes. There have been several reissues, including one using the JRC4558 op-amp found in the Tube Screamer, as well as one using a KA4558 chip. This reissue returns to the LM741, the chip in the original, mirroring the bill of materials for the Distortion+. Where the pedals differ in tone is in their diodes. The Distortion+ used germanium diodes, while the 250 employed silicon diodes. When the circuit is so simple, the type of clipping diodes makes a big difference in terms of overall tone and feel. Especially when arranged in a hard-clipping configuration, the parts choice matters greatly for headroom and timbre. For such a lean circuit, the 250 is super articulate and punchy as a distortion.Can be a clean boost, light overdrive, or heavier gain pedal. Have never tried a DOD 250 before and have to say I'm very pleased. Adds just a bit of body to the sound and gets richer with the more gain you add!
