DOD 250 50th Anniversary Edition

Marking half a century of groundbreaking guitar effects, the DOD Overdrive Preamp 250 50th Anniversary Edition honors the iconic tone of the original pedal while introducing new features for today’s players. Handbuilt in the U.S.A., this limited run is a must-have for collectors and tone enthusiasts alike.

DOD 250 Three Distortion Modes

A three-position toggle switch offers three distinct voices:

  • Silicon: Faithfully replicates the classic 250’s overdrive.
  • Ge/ASYM: Adds asymmetrical clipping with vintage Germanium diodes for a warmer, more dynamic response.
  • Lift: Removes diode clipping altogether, functioning as a clean or dirty boost.

DOD 250 Overdrive Simple, Intuitive Controls

The beloved Gain and Level knobs remain, delivering everything from subtle grit to full-on distortion. Whether you’re shaping a slight boost or bold crunch, dialing in your sound is effortless.

DOD 250 50th Anniversary Modern Upgrades, Vintage Appeal

Boasting true bypass, a neon yellow-green LED, and a lighter aluminum chassis, the 50th Anniversary 250 fuses modern reliability with classic design. A commemorative metal flake gray finish and etched badges pay homage to DOD’s legacy.

Limited-Edition Extras

Only 1,974 units are available, each including a custom pedal topper, unique stickers, and guitar picks—perfect for collectors. With through-hole components, a socketed LM741 op-amp, and DOD’s 1-year warranty, this pedal combines heritage and innovation for the ultimate overdrive experience.
