Beast / Blue Beast Overdrives

Room for one more amp-in-a-box? Maybe even two. Alrighty then...

The Beast OD gets you into the realm of a '68 Plexi. Not just any old '68 Plexi, but one that is both stock and 'modded'. Flip the Snarl switch on this box and your gain goes up to 11.

Throw in a few overused adjectives such as 'open' and 'dynamic' if you will, as they really do apply here.

Now you can also built a lower gain version which is kinda blue. It's the same circuit with a few value swaps to tame the beast for a lower gain range.

The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs.


If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page.

Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots.

Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED.

Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included.

Builds are only available with full kits including enclosures. Please choose appropriate knobs.

really nice kit 5 product stars
"this is 'very' similar a very nice Marshall sounding pedal, they do this one and one that is more like a JTM 45 plexi, that one doesn't have the boost switch or quite as much gain.The only difference in the circuit between the two seems to be the pot values so i used a gain pot with a lower value. The kit is very good, the boards a really good quality unlike some you get. The instructions are great and the assembled picture is clear so that helps. I build it up in an afternoon including breaks and what not. Really happy with it." Josh - 17 July 2019
