General

The J.Rockett Allan Holdsworth Overdrive/Boost pedal is a highly-versatile signature stompbox that offers plenty of possibilities thanks to its switches and various potentiometers. It's not just for Allan Holdsworth fans or fusion guitarists either: rock guitarists will love the sounds this pedal produces too. As well as giving you a mild overdrive, it's great for making your solos really stand out.

Allan Holdsworth Overdrive/Boost

The level of overdrive can be controlled using the gain and volume potentiometers and there are bass and treble controls too. The boost function can be used with or without the overdrive and it's perfect for pushing your tube amplifier over the edge. There's a 3-way switch in the boost section that gives you three different boost options: F for full, C for clean and T for treble. You can also further emphasise the higher or lower frequencies using the dedicated switch.

J. Rockett Audio Designs

J. RAD was established in 2006 by Jay Rockett and Chris van Tassel. These experienced session musicians weren't satisfied with the effects pedals available at the time so they decided to make their own. They listened to feedback from other musicians during each step of the development process. That's why these top-quality stompboxes sound great and are highly versatile and easy to use too. Ron Hahn helped take the company to the next level and they sincerely hope that their pedals will inspire you to new heights too.

Wrote the following about J. Rockett Allan Holdsworth Overdrive/Boost pedal
This isn’t the cheapest overdrive in the market but it’s certainly up there with the best. Overdrive is great on its own but really shines when the boost is activated. Thats where the secret ingredient is. I can see the boost being an “always on” thing for me too, it just makes everything sound... better. And yes, it’s easy to get an instant Holdsworth tone.
