V2 Open Road Overdrive

The V2 Open Road Overdrive by Visual Sound is a versatile overdrive pedal designed to deliver a wide range of amp-like overdrive tones with clear low end and sparkling highs, while avoiding the mid-range hump commonly found in other overdrive pedals. The pedal features a very interactive tone circuit that affects high-end roll-off and gain structure, allowing for organic amp- like tones at any setting and volume. The Open Road Overdrive is designed to produce grind and girth, with all notes ringing through when playing chords, sizzling single note lines, and powerful grinding power chords. It is also noted to work great with bass guitars.
