Like the 50th Anniversary Edition,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDOD equipped the 250-X with the same trio of voicing options. From the stock silicon-fueled sound of the original to Asymmetrical mode to a handy Lift mode that functions as a high-octane boost, this pedal’s triumvirate of tones makes it the most flexible and expressive OD\/Pre 250 that DOD has crafted to date. And true to the 50th Anniversary, the Overdrive Preamp 250-X brandishes a brilliantly redesigned enclosure that harkens back to the original with a metal flake gray finish and vibrant yellow silk-screening. Destined to become a classic among discerning tone seekers and stompbox collectors alike, the Overdrive Preamp 250-X is the ultimate iteration of the DOD dirtbox that started it all.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAll the grit of the original, along with two all-new modes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the DOD 250 first launched in 1977, it sported a simple and efficient arrangement of a single Gain knob and a single Level control. And while this no-nonsense combo is just as relevant today as it was in the late 1970s, DOD’s Overdrive Preamp 250-X refreshes the original recipe with enhanced sonic possibilities. Thus, this pedal’s 3-position switch unlocks a trio of distinct clipping options to choose from.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSilicon:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThis setting captures the OD 250 as it first appeared in 1977, providing a raw, gritty response with plenty of gain on tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eASYM:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFlipping the switch down produces a rich and dynamic asymmetrical even-harmonic distortion that forms a perfect sonic complement to the OD 250’s traditional sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLift:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFinally, this setting eliminates diode clipping from the circuit entirely.
