MXR Yngwie Malmsteen Overdrive Red

It is a quality made pedal. As the other ones that I had from MXR, very well built. Tone wise, it is different from previous signature versions of Yngwie. Compared to my DOD YJM308 and Fender's version, it is slightly darker and a bit muddier. At the minimum gain level clipping still can be heard with medium to higher output pickups. Unfortunately, this version still has some amount of hiss which gets quite loud with a cranked plexi.

I was using a jhs pre amp overdrive I purchased from thomann which was a brilliant pedal for me I'm neo classical playing a 70s strat with a yjm seymour duncan loaded picklguard I also purchased here ok thomann but then this pedal has brought it to the next level very sharp clean high gain pedal perfect for me

Simply the best overdrive good enough for Malmsteen!
