FET Hybrid Overdrive: [ Ссылка ]
The majority of overdrive/distortion pedals out there today will be using an op amp combined with diodes to achieve clipping. But, there is a whole other school of circuit designs that utilize FETs. Naturally overdriving the FETs themselves, these pedals have no clipping didoes and achieve breakup in a very different way than diode clipping. (Well, not ALL of them...)

So, today we are comparing the overdrive tones of 3 overdrive/distortion pedals, each having a unique circuit design for achieving breakup in the guitar signal. Although it's difficult to make a fair comparison since their frequency responses are not the same, let's try to hear how they break up and what the differences are!

Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy the video!
