Project Overview

Introducing the Einstein Constant Overdrive, the pedal that can go from natural light to a mild overdrive with rich harmonics and smooth clipping at the speed of light! It can be set to sound like the original signal, making it perfect for those who appreciate transparency. Plus, it features true bypass, so your tone is never compromised.

Introduction
