Mucky Hush Overdrive

Truly awesome box of Marshall-esque tone.

Based on a certain boutique circuit, this is a highly responsive overdrive that is a great tone shaper. It'll push your tube amp into new realms of sonic loveliness.

There's a switch to choose between Rock and Rawk! modes, and this latest version of the PCB has all the pots onboard. Sweet.

If the position of the switch tweaks out your OCD, bad luck.

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 enclosure and vertical-mount pots. Please choose appropriate knobs.
