OVERDRIVE- Electronic Audio Experiments DAGGER... Genius, or Stupid ????

EXPERIMENTS| DAGGER OD 
$200.00 USD
This company is popular with the Shoegaze crowd and Ambience guys. So this OD walks 
a fine line since it depends on that just right Indie Alt guy to make something of it resembling a conventional tune to change a WTF to how cool!!!
The guts of the pedal is a classic hard clipper OpAmp  maybe even starting with Tube Screamer topography. Big but. It uses NOS germanium clipping diodes that gives a pedal a wooly warm sound. The EQ was added from another pedal but put in to work in real time to make changes to match with the circuit but it gave the pedal nasty but good tear your face off contrasting tone.
The EQ was left in and when turned up overloads the circuit and adds to the dirt. 
A switch was added to tighten it up but in its open mode it is a take no 
prisoners to those that dare.
The layout volume, gain, treble, bass & switchable voicing.

CONCLUSION
You love it or hate it. It is quirky but meant to be.
