OVERDRIVE- D.E. DE01 Iceberg O.D. ...open and transparent but with a Brit vibe.

 D.E. DE01 ICEBERG OD.
$105.00 USD

Not a lot is known about D. Electronics other than they are new
apparently independent and have only shown up in a couple of 
online Super Stores in Australia.
The layout is simple enough with output, tone and drive and a 3 way toggle that seems to increase the gain. This could be clipping diodes or even cascading transistors ...or a bit of both.

CONCLUSION
Rumour has it a U.S. branch will open soon. Yes it will be convenient but will the price go up??? My guess is at least $20 more.
It has near transparent sweet voice but with a Marshall vibe that still can push out a bit of punch when pushed. It sounds very upmarket. Impossible not to like. A great first pedal and a second  high gain pedal will be out soon. Damn! ...another temptation ...especially at the price!

  1. Loved this overdrive so much bought another just in case. One of my favorite pedals. Not sure if it’s an original circuit or not but works amazing for all types of music. I might mod one to have a switch for different diodes. Maybe orange or green LED’s.
