Serenity Overdrive
Stomp Under Foot's Serenity Overdrive is a true hidden gem in the world of guitar effects. This compact pedal packs a punch that belies its unassuming appearance, delivering a luscious, harmonically-rich overdrive that can take your tone on a journey from smooth and soulful to downright ferocious. At its heart, the Serenity Overdrive employs a carefully-tuned gain structure that allows you to dial in just the right amount of grit, from a light, touch-sensitive breakup to a thick, saturated crunch that's perfect for cutting through a dense mix. But what really sets this pedal apart is its exceptional tone control, which provides an impressively wide sweep - far beyond the typical "treble boost" found on many overdrives. This allows you to sculpt your sound, taming harsh highs or adding just the right amount of sparkle to match your rig and playing style. What's more, the Serenity Overdrive plays incredibly well with other pedals, both as a standalone gain stage and as a versatile tone-shaper. Guitarists in the know, like Wilco's Nels Cline, have been using this pedal to coax out rich, complex tones that breathe new life into their rigs. Whether you're looking to add some vintage-inspired warmth to your clean tone or push your amp into glorious, harmonically-complex overdrive, the Serenity Overdrive is a must-try addition to any discerning player's pedalboard.
