Beetronics FX Wannabee "Beelateral Buzz" Overdrive Pedal

Superb Double-dirt Overdrive for Busy Bees! Imitation is a high form of flattery when it comes to overdrives, and the Beetronics Wannabee “Beelateral Buzz” overdrive pedal embraces that with a double dose of overdrive circuits with a sweet twist. The Wannabee’s unique routing tools let you combine classic overdrives in any order or combine in parallel. These tools make it easy to stack tones, which is what most players do regardless — Wannabee just simplifies the process! The included circuits cover two drive styles with deep roots. The first is a transparent, medium-gain overdrive that’s prized for its golden tone and edge-of-breakup fidelity. It’s also useful as a boost! The second circuit is a blues-style packed with monstrous output and the response of a cranked tube amplifier. The strong clarity and note definition of this circuit achieve brilliant saturation, even at high volumes. The Wannabee also offers a bevy of sound-sculpting toggles for tweaking bass response and wet/dry blend. Moreover, two footswitches fuel independent control of each overdrive, which makes the Wannabee a silver bullet for all your overdrive needs. Secure a practical spin on your favorite overdrive pedals today with the Wannabee “Beelateral Buzz” overdrive pedal from Sweetwater!

Circuit #1: it’s a controversial circuit only because so many sing its praises! Circuit #1 preserves incoming tone while upping the ante with a touch of sparkle and grit. Many also use this circuit as an almost-clean boost. Circuit #1’s companion toggle allows further customization with three degrees of wet/dry blend at your disposal. Circuit #2: a high-output, amp-like overdrive in the British tradition. Famously used by John Mayer, but also by numerous non-blues artists who love saturated tube-like tones. Expect thick bass and glassy highs that can sting with a clarity that almost hurts. Circuit #2’s companion toggle lets you adjust the overdrive’s bass response, which certainly comes in handy when recording or playing at stage levels. Custom drive orders let you bee who you Wannabee! The Wannabee is far beyond a clone! The folks at Beetronics added innovative routing for adjusting circuit order; either circuit can be placed first, and using both circuits in tandem unlocks hearty distortion. To unleash distortion, simply increase the volume level on the circuit that’s placed first as it flows into the second overdrive! When you factor in the distortion possibilities, the Wannabee offers up to three different dirt options at any given moment and empowers efficient dynamic changes, especially in live settings. Moreover, the Wannabee lets you run both circuits in parallel if desired — an uncommon but useful option rarely seen with overdrive pedals!
