MXR
EVH® 5150™ OVERDRIVE
$229.99Reference price
An overdrive created in collaboration between Eddie Van Halen and MXR, putting the sound of the EVH 5150 amp into a pedal. Multiple MOSFET stages produce tube-like distortion, shaped with a BASS/MID/TREBLE 3-band EQ. A BOOST switch increases gain and compression, and a built-in noise gate set with the GATE knob mutes noise at high gain.
An overdrive that packs the 5150 amp's distortion into a pedal
A model created in collaboration between Eddie Van Halen and MXR, putting the sound of the EVH 5150 amp into a pedal.
Amp-like distortion from multiple MOSFET stages
Multiple MOSFET stages produce tube-like overdrive, covering everything from classic Van Halen sounds to extreme distortion with the BOOST switch. Engaging BOOST increases gain and compression.
Noise gate and 3-band EQ
A built-in noise gate with a threshold set by the GATE knob mutes noise at high gain. The BASS/MID/TREBLE 3-band EQ shapes the tone alongside the gain.
