Jackson audio Cory Wong Warp The Optimist Overdrive
The JACKSON AUDIO Cory Wong The Optimist Overdrive is one of the most versatile overdrive pedal you can find.
Designed to give a full range of drive levels for punchy rhythm to soaring lead.
The Klon has been this mystical and hyped-up circuit for years, and for good reason ! It’s an incredible circuit, and the way it pairs with the flat response overdrive is incredible. OD1 has the mid bump Klon circuit that we know and love.
OD2 has a flat response overdrive that has an incredible range of drive. When the two of them pair together it creates an even more boosted drive that doesn’t squeal !
The final piece of magic is the EQ that focuses on the frequencies that you want more of in single coils, and less of in humbuckers. The EQ can help tone shape your guitars to match each other, or it can help you get the perfect clean tone out of an amp.
The Optimist features MIDI control over all functions ! OD1, OD2 and EQ can all be controlled via MIDI for an unlimited selection of tones.
In order to use MIDI, you will need a cable that converts a MIDI (DIN-5) connector to a TRS cable.
