OVERDRIVE EUPHORIA
The Euphoria has been world famous for many things over the years, but mainly it has become famous for its versatility and that old boutique slogan "transparency".
When Brian created the circuit that would become the Euphoria, he was working on creating a pedal that would go from clean to extremely fat sounds while adding a little warmth, a natural overdrive... the goal was to make a pedal that does NOT work. sound like a pedal - it had to be dynamic, have a great choice of sounds (from bass to soft) while still being able to respond to the volume knob like a tube amp.
The hidden secret of the Euphoria is the pre-gain bass control. This gives you a fatness to the sound that a regular EQ stack can't give you, it gives you a warmth and sustain to the sound that is extremely similar to that famous elusive amp that attracts the kind of price in the audio market. opportunity that could literally buy you a house.
If you like the sound of your clean tone and just want more hair on the note...a little grit without any tonal shift, the Euphoria will do it easily. The 3 completely separate gain stages give you 3 distinct overdrive styles - So from that famous smooth amp style to an open, free sound that simply pushes your natural tone to a more aggressive crunch style, the Euphoria will be the first, and probably last, choice you make for an overdrive pedal.
