Total Guitar award their ‘Best Buy’ accolade to the DOD Looking Glass Overdrive pedal in the new issue of the magazine. The Looking Glass Overdrive is collaboration between DOD and the boutique pedal company SHOE Pedals. Christopher Venter of SHOE Pedals is known for his unique circuits, colourful perspective on classic effects, and minimalist design aesthetic. We felt for the clean channel, the boost was unnecessary and made the sound slightly cluttered and abrupt. Even diming out the gain and peppering the bottom two knobs, we felt this pedal wasn’t mated well to this channel. The dimed-out gain in the low gain setting sounded akin to a Fender twin pushed to breakup . We understand some of our readers will relish this sound, though, and it was well suited to a Beatles-esque application. The DOD Looking Glass is a very interesting overdrive as its Class A FET design and asymmetrical gain stage make it more like a preamp for your amplifier than a traditional overdrive. Created by the incredible team at Shoe pedals and sold with the DOD badge this is a seriously cool addition to any pedalboard

A standard, heavy-duty footswitch allows for On/Bypass operation and with the unit on, a blue indicator light illuminates so brightly that even the blind can see it. Throughout our sound testing, there was a definite sweet spot when dialing in the bottom two knobs. On any channel, we had bad, good and great tone, depending how much we used our ears and learned the function of these three control knobs. Spending a little bit of time understanding the pedal went a long way for us. Another note about the bright LED: it’s great for an outdoors gig, but we found it a bit overbearing on a very dark stage. Sound You should get an instant answer on whether your application has been successful, though in some rare cases Klarna or V12 may need to look at the application in more detail.The bass cut and treble controls allow you to tighten your guitar’s tone, or to let it loose for a less structured drive. The gain control determines how much you distort your sound, varying from a light layer of compression to an aggressive, raw punch emulating an amp at its brink. Whether it’s modern, vintage, light or heavy overdrive you’re looking for, the Looking Glass has it all. Boutique roots

DOD ??? LOOKING GLASS #??? #?????? # todaysgear #???? #????? #???? #????? #?????? #???? by Today's Gear The Looking Glass is a true bypass pedal, which allows the guitar tone to remain pristine even when the device is off. The power supply input makes it pedalboard-friendly, and it can also be powered by a 9V alkaline dry battery. DOD Looking Glass and DigiTech CabDryVR with the Polara Reverb ran after the CabDryVR. Gets that "amp in a big room sound". #dig_it by Digitech Dual gain ranges are selectable on toggle, so the player can control the intensity of overdrive and distortion. A separate HIGH/LOW GAIN SWITCH allows the player to select between a softer overdrive setting and a stiffer, boost compression-oriented higher-headroom setting that can be used as a tone shaping tool or overdrive for higher gain amplifiers. Finely tuned gain ranges provide satisfying feel in the player’s hands. Because of how the pedal produces its gain you always get a beautiful amp like gain. With the gain down low you get clean and low gain boost tones that don't overly colour your amplifier. Crank it up a few notches and you start to get some extremely powerful gain tones that respond like an old vintage amp pushed beyond where it is comfortable. Think Jimi Hendrix era psychedelic tones and you are in the right ball park for what this pedal can do.
