DigiTech DOD-250 Overview

50th Anniversary of a Legendary Pedal
Experience the pedal that helped shape the sound of rock and metal with the DOD 250 50th Anniversary Edition from DigiTech, an overdrive and preamp pedal hand built in the USA with an authentic vintage design. Sporting two extra boosting modes and a distinctive 50th anniversary finish, this pedal appeals to collectors and players alike.

The DOD 250 50th Anniversary offers up three boosting modes: a Silicon mode that uses an authentic LM741 op-amp for classic 250 bite and grind, a Ge/Asym germanium asymmetric mode for even-order clipping that delivers a distinct tone with excellent touch response, and a Lift mode that removes diode clipping for use as a clean boost or preamp. The pedal is constructed from durable yet lightweight aluminum. This overdrive pedal supports both 9V battery operation and power adapters with outputs up to 18V (both sold separately). The DOD 250 50th Anniversary includes four guitar picks, four stickers, a 50th anniversary pedal topper, and a hex wrench.

50th Anniversary Limited Edition
Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the renowned DOD Electronics, founded in 1974 in Salt Lake City, Utah by entrepreneurs John Johnson and Mr. DOD himself, David O. DiFrancesco, DigiTech is excited and proud to commemorate this historic anniversary with a limited edition 250 Overdrive/Preamp. Only 1,974 units will be made, making this pedal an ideal collector's item, as well as a killer overdrive pedal that surpasses it's predecessor.
Three Overdrives in One
Switch between vintage-authentic Silicon clipping (like the original DOD 250), Ge/Asym germanium asymmetrical clipping, or Lift for no diode clipping, providing either a clean boost or op-amp rail clipping at higher levels. With support for up to +18V inputs, you can get even more headroom and gain out of this pedal than the standard DOD 250.
Mod-Friendly Components
This pedal is equipped with a socketed LM741 op-amp and through-hole components for easier modding, just as the original 250s were known for. Hand built, these limited-edition pedals will last for years and provide a creative springboard for players that like to tweak and mod their gear for the perfect sound.
Reborn in the USA
Just as the originals were crafted in the USA, the 50th Anniversary DOD 250 is hand built to proudly reclaim the title of America's Pedal. Each pedal is fully design and assembled in Salt Lake City, Utah to exacting standards.
