DOD FX55-B Supra Distortion
What is it? DOD FX55-B Supra Distortion. Made in US, early 1990. One of the pedals that DOD sold a lot back in the day. I assume this probably was the first pedal for many people in the late 80’s and 90’s. And why not. Widely available and in a low price range. The name…
DOD FX53 Classic Tube
What is it? DOD FX53 Classic Tube from DOD’s FX series. Made in USA, 1991. A unit that’s been mostly put down by the misconception about its design for decades. I know i was under the wrong impression for a long time too. The name may point to the direction of all the different tubescreamers…
DOD FX101 Grind – Rectifying Overdrive
What is it? DOD FX101 Grind – Rectyfying Overdrive with EHO (Even Harmonic Overdrive). From FX-series, made in USA between 1996 and 1999. I was under the impression that the circuit found here would be exactly the same as for FX100 Even Harmonic Overdrive with just very slight changes. Reason for this belief is due…

DOD FX35 Octoplus
What is it? DOD FX35 Octoplus from FX series. Made in USA late 1995. For the love of octave dividers! Some will always say that one can never have too many fuzzes. Well. I say one can never have too many down octave divider pedals. As with most of the effects in the genre, the…
DOD FX22 Vibro Thang
What is it? DOD FX22 Vibro Thang from FX series. No serial number (blue velcro on botton plate and rubber+sticker missing), but judging by the graphics, this unit is made in USA, around 1997. Only few of DOD FX series boxes have received as wide recognition and fan base as Vibro Thang. A few more…
DOD FX76 Punkifier
What is it? DOD FX76 Punkifier from FX series. Made in USA late 1995. I find the back catalog of DOD FX series to be very interesting. There are a lot of great designs and original ideas in there. And there are a number of boring and dull designs. FX76 Punkifier is not dull. At…
DOD FX100 Even Harmonic Overdrive
What is it? DOD FX100 Even Harmonic Overdrive (with Integrated Tube (TM) Technology. Made in USA in 1997. Of course i was curious about this new and exciting thing called Integrated Tube (TM), or I.T. (TM) technology. What it actually is – it is how marketing department takes random words, put them one after another…
DOD FX91 Bass Overdrive
What is it? DOD FX91 Bass Overdrive from DOD FX-series. Made in US around year 2000. No serial or battery door in tact, even though this late enclosure version has the door attached with a rod. Bass overdrives are a fun genre. I’ve seen a few and nearly all of them are pretty standard overdrive…
