The original BE-OD pedal was a hit from the offset, but the Friedman BE-OD Deluxe takes that design up by a significant notch. Now boasting dual channels and mid-range controls, you have far more tonal freedom and flexibility.

The BE-OD could already turn practically any amp into a fire-breathing monster, but now you can dial-in a milder, low-gain mode to that setup as well.

Dual Channels

Like the standard BE-OD pedal, the BE-OD Deluxe derives heavily from Friedman's flagship amplifier – the BE-100. This means that you can expect that authentic valve amp response and feel. With channel 1 employing the exact same circuit as the BE-OD, this mode offers hair-raising levels of gain, perfect for hard rockers or metalheads looking for that modded black and gold tone.

Channel 2 has the same character and response as channel 1, but this mode has been voiced with slightly less gain. This means that you can perfectly setup rhythm and lead channels, with the BE-OD Deluxe serving as the source for all of your drive and distortion needs.

Flexible Controls

Dave Friedman's original BE-OD is loved for its crushing tones, however its lack of a mid control was something that some players disliked. Friedman has listened to its fans and addressed this demand, adding mid-range controls for channels 1 and 2. This means that you have a full 3-band EQ section for both channels, letting you tweak your tones to absolute perfection.

It doesn't end there either though, as each channel also boasts a presence switch that can add further top-end crispness if you're playing through a dark-sounding amp. While the gain and volume controls are self-explanatory, the channels also feature 3-way tight switches. These act like a bass roll-off, letting you take out any flubbiness from your drive tones so that they sound more focused and 'tight'.
