Rockbox Boiling Point Overdrive #2874

Rockbox Boiling Point Overdrive

The Rockbox™ Boiling Point™ Overdrive Boost incorporates a 3 position
diode selector for a nearly endless variety of harmonic flavor. In the
Plexi mode, the pedal has very Marshall-like response. For the
Symetrical Overdrive mode, we gave the pedal a truly organic, tube-like
distortion, with greater output. You will notice the overtones and
response is like no other pedal. The middle position is a clean boost,
with more than enough gain to send your favorite tube amp into overdrive
heaven. While we gave the Overdrive Boost a tremendous amount of gain,
we paid close attention to how the pedal cleans up. If you are a volume
knob player, you will love how this pedal will clean up for a thick,
creamy clean rhythm sound.


In a recent pedal shootout that included many of the "holy-grail" and
vintage pedals like Landgraff, Klon, Fulltone, Lovepedal, Way Huge,
Analog Man and Paul Cochrane, the Boiling Point™ was consistently named
the "Best of Class" by all the players who participated.


For greatest road reliability, we don't use socketed connections in
any location with the exception of the 4558 chip, which was designed to
be socketed. Socketed connections, which you will find in some boutique
builders work, can come loose and fail. We solder all connections within
the pedal for greatest road reliability. The IC is socketed so that you
can experiment with other IC chips. (We prefer the sound of the RC4558P
in most builds, but can ship with any other chip you prefer). It may be
quicker to use pin sockets like some of the more expensive competition,
but we don't want you to suffer due to unreliable connections.


Final assembly of our effects are followed one final test: Each
finished pedal is auditioned using the best test we know of - we listen
to it.


We truly believe that the Boiling Point™ is one of the best overdrive
pedals you will ever purchase. If you are an experienced guitarist,
satisfied with your amplifier rig, the Boiling Point™ will add a wide
variety of very tasty flavors to enhance your sound. "Enhance" is an
important concept with us. The Boiling Point™ is specifically tuned with
the finest quality components to ensure that the true sound of your
guitar shines through. You will notice that your guitar's sound will
remain the foundation of that sound even with the most aggressive
distortion settings.


If you are like most of us, and have wasted money in the past on
effects that just didn't cut it, the Boiling Point™ will make a believer
out of you. We think that you will find the Boiling Point™ to be a
useful tool in your arsenal of sound, and will get a permanent spot on
your pedalboard.
