Friedman BE-OD Pedal, Second-Hand Overview
Item in good condition (Small marks or scratches)
The Friedman BE-OD pedal is a high-quality overdrive pedal that delivers the iconic, rich, and dynamic tone associated with Friedman’s signature BE-series amplifiers. Designed to replicate the sound of the BE-100 amp head, the BE-OD features a two-channel design, offering both a low-gain and high-gain mode for versatile tonal options. It uses a combination of premium components and discrete analog circuitry, ensuring a smooth and responsive overdrive that retains clarity even at high gain levels. The pedal features three primary controls—Gain, Tone, and Volume—along with a switchable boost for added gain and sustain. The Tone control provides a wide range of tonal shaping, from tight and punchy to smooth and warm. The BE-OD also offers a unique “Tight” switch to tighten up the low end for more focused and controlled distortion. Powered by a 9V DC adapter, the pedal provides true bypass switching, ensuring zero signal degradation when the effect is off. Ideal for players seeking classic rock, metal, and high-gain tones, the Friedman BE-OD is a go-to choice for achieving rich, amp-like overdrive sounds.
