Hammertone™ Breakup Drive

Dial in responsive, tube-like drive tones with the Hammertone® Breakup Drive.

The perfect contender for an always-on pedal, this JFET based overdrive is designed with one focus in mind: replicating the dynamic response of hot tubes right at the edge of saturation.

Two selectable clipping modes tailor the drive’s character between light breakup and medium-gain overdrive, each supplying an expressive response that cleans up with lighter picking and breaks up more the harder you strum.

An expansive tone control and switchable pre-gain mid boost provide powerful frequency shaping tools to hone your final tone. From flavouring your core clean tone to delivering dynamic overdrive on tap, the Hammertone Breakup Drive has you covered.

JFET© BASED CIRCUITRY

The core drive circuit is designed around JFET transistors, prized for their ability to replicate the tonal behaviour of tubes.

DYNAMIC SATURATION

Just like tubes on the edge of breakup, dynamic clipping stages react to your picking and organically saturate more the harder you pick.

SELECTABLE CLIPPING STAGES

Choose between two clipping stages to tailor your saturation level: pushed, edge of breakup or a medium-gain overdrive with higher harmonic content.

MIDS INJECTION SWITCH

Flip the mids switch into the up position to apply a 9dB middle frequency boost before the clipping stage, perfect for cutting through the mix with a classic, mid-heavy overdrive tone
