MXR Yngwie Malmsteen Overdrive Effect Pedal

When balancing hard rock tonality and neoclassical melodicism, a few names might come to mind – but one is for certain.

The MXR Yngwie Malmsteen Overdrive comes together as a joint effort between the guitar legend and MXR to develop Malmsteen’s ideal overdrive sound. With a career spanning decades and countless distinctions to his name, Malmsteen has earned his place among the pantheon of guitar’s greatest, and this signature drive from MXR only compounds upon that legacy. Players seeking Malmsteen’s direction in dynamics, harmonics and clarity need look no further than this compact box of tone for their own virtuosic playing.

A straightforward Level and Gain knob setup comprises the entirety of the interface for this MXR creation. Reminiscent of other two-knob classics from MXR, this overdrive punches well above its weight class for a colorful spectrum of sound to mix through with each turn of a dial. This pedal seeks to make players pilots of their own overdriven experience to push the limits of their playing with laser-focused tonality. Ascend to the summit of neoclassical rock and partake in this pedal’s tonal treasures – MXR designed, and Yngwie approved.
