Product Description

The Snouse BlackBox Overdrive 2 is a dream come true for classic guitarists. Essentially three pedals in one, dive into legendary Bluesbreaker crunch, milder low gain and a JFET pre-gain clean boost all in a pedal the size of your standard stompbox.

Sound

An extremely dynamic piece of kit, the BlackBox will enhance any rig with its versatility and sweet, rich sound. Use it to prop up mid frequencies on top of some amp gain or rely on the pedal to provide any type of classic overdrive you can conjure. 

Controls

You’ll have access to a wide spectrum of sounds at your feet. Each control has a huge range so you can dial in anything from fat vintage overdrive to ‘80s high-gain. If you’re after screaming lead tones, crank the Gain and Tone control knobs. The Presence setting helps you shape your rhythm tone. Boost will squeeze every little bit of character out the out the front end of your amp. 

Classic Setting

The BlackBox 2 can be switched into a classic mode, converting the circuit into the three-dial system of its predecessor. It’ll still retain loads of output volume but reverts to a simpler layout – super easy to dial in a great tone.

Blackbox overdrive 2. I love the clean preamp and the bluesbreaker growl. All in one pedal. No noise, just great tone. I use it to drive a boss ir-2, and it makes it come alive with more power to the tone. Good build. I have not messed with the dip switches. I have had a peek inside. Maybe i will try swapping the socketed op amp one day. Very tidy inside. This pedal is the result of one talented mans passion and obsession over many years with prototypes and revisions. A polished piece of electric art.

Need to spend more time. It sounds good so far. Love the options and control you have, but I haven't found what is special about the tone yet. The boost knob is a good touch.

This pedal is magic. It took me all of a few quick minutes to get a beautiful tone. It was recommended to me by a friend - aided by some online research that impressed me so I dove in with high hopes & it didn’t disappoint. Coupled with a klone used as a boost, it renders a tone that makes you want to play - equally gorgeous with a 335 or a Strat. Lush & full bodied. Looking for a blues breaker circuit? This is a killer.
