    Bass-y Bee Overdrive - Handwired Guitar Pedal - Bearfoot FX BlueBerry Bass Clone. Condition is "Used". Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
    This pedal is based around the effectslayout.com Bass Blue Bee Overdrive ( http://effectslayouts.com/product/blue-bee/ ) which itself is a clone of the Bearfoot FX BlueBerry Bass Overdrive. This is one of the best, low to mid gain bass overdrive pedals you can get. There are a lot of pedals that can do heavy, distortion-esque overdrive tones. There are far fewer that really shine at the lower gain tones that are central to the vast majority of non-metal players. This is probably the best low-gain drive out there and this pedal is often the heart of many players “clean” tone.
    This overdrive sound is warm and natural and can range from just a touch of dirt to a nice drive that, while not high gain, is still very fat.
    Check out some reviews of the original on Reverb and listen to some samples on YouTube — this pedal is simply amazing. This clone sounds exactly like the original.
    This pedal is the bass version of the Honey Bee Overdrive. I have built many versions of both the Honey Bee and the BlueBerry and I very much prefer this version over the Honey Bee. The only real change is a few transistors and some capacitors to allow more bass through. This pedal shines in adding some light but FAT drive, and this is way better done in the lower registers this pedal is voiced to enhance. Although voiced for bass, this pedal sounds just as amazing with guitar.
    If I love this pedal so much, why am I selling it? I made a handful of copies of this pedal for my alternate boards. With the shutdowns, I do not really need alternate boards and so am selling my duplicate pedals to clear up some clutter.
    This pedal was hand-built and hand-wired and has been fully tested. The pedal was built with top-of the line parts: 1% tolerance metal resistors, silicone wiring, higher quality capacitors, the whole shebang. I sourced the parts myself, so I could get the highest quality components possible. I am not expecting or trying to sell this pedal for anything close to what an original would go for. I would love for this pedal to go to someone who is curious if this sound matches their rig or setup but isn't sure they can afford a “real” one. Would I like to get a few bucks to cover the cost of materials? Yeah. Do I expect to even fully recover the money I put into building this? Nope. I will likely take whatever I get and buy more parts to build more pedals. I just don’t want to have a pedal sitting in a drawer that I do not use.
    I am only selling because I need the space more than I need the gear. Please see the photos for condition -- what you see is what you get. Please email with any questions or concerns. This pedal works perfectly and is in great condition. The photos included are of the actual items you will receive. Thanks for looking.
