The Royal Blue Overdrive offers a wide range of gain from light overdrive to distortion. With
the Drive rolled all the way off it can also serve as boost with EQ. Filtering is limited on the
overdrive to provide transparent tone that you can tailor with the Treble and Bass controls.
One of the most valued attributes of an overdrive pedal is touch sensitivity. Like the best
boutique amps the RBO lets you determine the amount of breakup by how hard you strike the
strings with your pick, and/or by adjusting the volume knob on your guitar. The Royal Blue
can add this level of expressiveness to any clean or slightly overdriven amplifier.

VOLUME: Set the overall output level of the pedal.
