Fender Smolder Acoustic Overdrive Pedal

Fender Smolder Acoustic Overdrive Pedal

Designed specifically for use with acoustic instruments, the all-analog Smolder Acoustic Overdrive elegantly solves these issues with Fender know-how. To soften the bright attack of a piezo pickup we included a Pickup Compensation control that smooths out the highs. The Drive knob controls the amount of distortion, while 3-band EQ and Filter controls let you shape your sound to taste. Also included is a cabinet simulation to add some flavor when plugged into a full-range acoustic amp or PA.

Design

Designed by the in-house team of experts, the Smolder Acoustic Overdrive is an all-original Fender circuit. The chassis is crafted from lightweight, durable anodized aluminum, and the Amp Jewel LED gives your pedalboard the classic Fender look. The switchable LED-backlit knobs show your control settings on a dark stage at a glance.

True Analog

Inspired by the all-analog design of vintage pedals, the Smolder also features modern controls for precision sound-shaping.

EQ Controls

Not only does the EQ section sport the traditional Bass, Middle, and Treble control, it also has a Filter control for even more sound-shaping.

Pickup Compensation Control

Combination high- and low-pass filters let you optimize the Smolder for your pickup type, compensating for potentially bright piezo elements.

Full Range Voicing

The Smolder is designed for optimal tone out of full-range devices like PAs and acoustic amplifiers.

9VDC Power

Since it uses a center-negative 9VDC connection, it’s easy to use the Smolder with most pedalboards and power supplies.
