The Story

The LTD was requested over and over again by the legions of low gain overdrive players that have been forced to try to "shoe horn" higher gain drives into service by operating them in the lowest part of their drive range. The LTD has been designed from the ground up for the low gain player. Now players of many styles including Blues, country, jazz, funk and beyond have the realistic mild breakup pedal that requires no excuses.

The Sound

With a perfectly tuned drive and tone controls you will here terms like clean, purring, bloom, twang, sweet, balanced, smooth, clear, sustain, harmonics etc... flying through your head and hands!
