Hand-built in the USA, this pedal features original potentiometer values, True Bypass, and three unique modes for versatile distortion options. Commemorative extras included.
This limited-edition pedal is limited to a 1,974-piece run to commemorate the year of DODās start, 1974. The original OD250 put DOD on the map as āAmericaās Pedalā and continues to be an industry favorite today. Each pedal will have a serial-numbered Certificate of Authenticity, a commemorative laser-etched pedal topper, several commemorative guitar picks, and multiple commemorative stickers.
Hand-built in the USA, the DOD OD250 ā 50th Anniversary Edition pedal boasts Gain and Level controls using the original potentiometer values and tapers giving the control knob the feel and range that DOD enthusiasts love. A three-position toggle switch features the OD250ās classic āSILICONā mode replicating that original sound. The āGe/ASYMā mode uses a vintage Germanium diode for asymmetrical even-harmonic distortion. āLIFTā mode cuts the diode clipping from the signal path allowing for a clean boost or even a dirty boost when the vintage LM741 op-amp is clipped at higher gain settings. The DOD 250 also features True Bypass to maintain the integrity of your guitar tone.
This limited edition OD250 is outfitted in a stunning metal flake gray finish with classic yellow screenprint in a callback to the original OD250 of the 1970s. An etched aluminum badge on each unit commemorates this occasion. The DOD OD 250 ā 50th Anniversary is ready to take its place among the historic DOD pedal lineup.
When John Johnson and āMr. DODā himself, David O. DiFrancesco set out to make DOD Electronics in Salt Lake City, Utah 50 years ago, they had no idea how enduring their legacy would be. Now 50 years later, DOD Electronics continues to be at the forefront of pedal technology. The DOD OD 250 ā 50th Anniversary Pedal is an exceptional testament to DOD Electronicsā longāstanding success.

The Gunslinger's tube-like harmonics are designed to deliver detailed and complex overdrive and distortion tones, with a level of touch sensitivity.
āThe Gunslinger is designed to help clean combo amps sound more like a modded British-style amp. The Gunslinger features a robust, brushed-metal chassis making the pedal look as bold as it sounds, a crisp blue LED power indicator, and four independent control knobs providing a wide range of sonic possibilities: GAIN adjusts the amount of gain being applied to the signal; LEVEL allows the user to adjust the output level. The active EQ section allows LOW boosts or cuts low frequencies from bone-rattling low-end sounds to a more cleaned-up midrange tone; HIGH lets the player boost or cut the treble. Aside from massive amounts of output and a variety of gain options, the Gunslinger makes it even easier to stay on target with a choice of 9 or 12V operation.
āAs a MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) device, the DOD Gunslinger can effectively emulate those highly sought-after valve sounds, enhancing the playerās harmonic dynamics, much as the preamp tubes in an old-school guitar amp. This results in unparalleled touch sensitivity, saturation, and string separation. Since the Gunslinger is so responsive to the dynamics and style of playing, the distortion will become more aggressive the harder a player attacks the strings and will āclean upā nicely and become less distorted when played lightly.
The Gunslingerās true bypass circuitry ensures that tone remains unspoiled even when the unit is off and its modern 9V DC power supply input and compact footprint (4.68ā x 2.63ā x 2.25ā) make it ideally suited to any pedalboard.
Whether aiming for big, crunchy chords or lightning-fast lead lines, the DOD Gunslinger always hits the mark.
