MS SOV MS-2V by Free The Tone

The MS SOV MS-2V by Free The Tone is an overdrive pedal that has undergone continuous evolution over 20 years and has attracted many guitarists. It adopts a high-performance DC-DC converter in its internal power circuit, boosting the voltage input at 9Vdc to ±15Vdc, supplying the signal circuit and operating it. This allows for an overwhelming dynamic range, reproducing the sound and characteristics of the guitar, delicate picking nuances, and hand touch as differences in tone while applying a natural drive. The pedal reproduces the soft harmonics and rich drive sound that vacuum tubes possess.

The appearance of the SOV-2-CS is finished according to specifications designed for musicians. The die-cast case is unpainted, and the markings such as letters are printed on labels and manually attached one by one. Inside the back cover, there is a handwritten signature of the developer, Yukihiro Hayashi, on each unit.

The MS SOV MS-2V is designed to provide a wide dynamic range and powerful expression based on ±15 Vdc internal boosting, incredibly high signal-to-noise ratio, and exceptional sound stability by using long-life high reliability components. Due to relatively large current consumption, it is recommended to use an AC adapter.
