CLASSIC SCREAMER
Tight and mid-forward.
Two symmetrical silicon diodes create smooth, controlled drive that works especially well when pushing an amplifier already beginning to break up.
GOLDEN BOY DEMONSTRATIONS
JACKSON AUDIO × JOEY LANDRETH
Golden Boy combines open, dynamic overdrive with four clipping voices, four gain levels, active EQ, an independent boost, and MIDI control.
FOUR CLIPPING VOICES
CLASSIC SCREAMER
Two symmetrical silicon diodes create smooth, controlled drive that works especially well when pushing an amplifier already beginning to break up.
ASYMMETRICAL CLIPPING
Three asymmetrical silicon diodes clip each side of the waveform differently, adding texture while preserving pick attack and chord definition.
SYMMETRICAL CLIPPING
Four symmetrical silicon diodes provide an immediate, controlled response designed to remain clear and present in a full mix.
RED LED CLIPPING
Symmetrical LED clipping provides a wider, less-compressed response suited to edge-of-breakup sounds and expressive slide playing.
GAIN CYCLE
Set the GAIN control as your maximum level. Press both footswitches to move through four equal stages without bending down to adjust the pedal.
The Baxandall-inspired EQ provides ±12dB of boost or cut for bass, middle, and treble. Center-detented controls return to a flat response at noon.
Use the boost with or without the overdrive and choose from Bright, Mid, Tailored, or Full boost responses. The independent signal path also lets you place the boost before or after the drive.
MIDI provides remote control over drive and boost bypass, clipping selection, Gain Cycle level, and boost EQ presets.
