About this deal

DOD Looking Glass, Killer Overdrive for that great Break up to an awesome solo boost!! #dig_it by Digitech A standard, heavy-duty footswitch allows for On/Bypass operation and with the unit on, a blue indicator light illuminates so brightly that even the blind can see it. We felt for the clean channel, the boost was unnecessary and made the sound slightly cluttered and abrupt. Even diming out the gain and peppering the bottom two knobs, we felt this pedal wasn’t mated well to this channel. The dimed-out gain in the low gain setting sounded akin to a Fender twin pushed to breakup . We understand some of our readers will relish this sound, though, and it was well suited to a Beatles-esque application.

The bass cut function subtracts bass content in the signal before it hits the pedal’s gain stage, which keeps the low-end tight, focused and airy.DOD Looking Glass overdrive. Great for your main overdrive or add it to another pedal!! #dig_it by Digitech The Looking Glass is a true bypass pedal, which allows the guitar tone to remain pristine even when the device is off. The power supply input makes it pedalboard-friendly, and it can also be powered by a 9V alkaline dry battery.

The Looking Glass Overdrive is collaboration between DOD and the boutique pedal company SHOE Pedals.

Getting a balance between the bottom two, tone-influencing knobs proved a little challenging, but was well worth the work. Other pedals with more limited tone controls can sound quite specifically good or bad depending on the guitar and amp they are paired with. But these two controls, along with the design of the pedal, ensure that you can properly match the tone of this pedal to your specific guitar and amp combination. The Looking Glass is true bypass, which allows your guitar tone to remain pristine even when the it is off and the power supply input makes it pedalboard friendly.

The versatile, yet simple, pre-drive BASS CUT and post-drive TREBLE controls allow players to retain clarity in the mix or dial-in raunchy raw tones as desired, with plenty of output and gain on tap. Another note about the bright LED: it’s great for an outdoors gig, but we found it a bit overbearing on a very dark stage. Sound

The bass cut and treble controls allow you to tighten your guitar’s tone, or to let it loose for a less structured drive. The gain control determines how much you distort your sound, varying from a light layer of compression to an aggressive, raw punch emulating an amp at its brink. Whether it’s modern, vintage, light or heavy overdrive you’re looking for, the Looking Glass has it all. Boutique roots The DOD Looking Glass is a very interesting overdrive as its Class A FET design and asymmetrical gain stage make it more like a preamp for your amplifier than a traditional overdrive. Created by the incredible team at Shoe pedals and sold with the DOD badge this is a seriously cool addition to any pedalboard Transparent" Overdrive Comparison | Boss BD-2, SS/BS mini, EQD westwood, and DOD looking glass by Megan L. With a touch-sensitive response and clever EQ options, the Looking Glass is a well-designed transparent overdrive pedal that will suit just about any guitar/ amp combination, clean or dirty”. Throughout our sound testing, there was a definite sweet spot when dialing in the bottom two knobs. On any channel, we had bad, good and great tone, depending how much we used our ears and learned the function of these three control knobs. Spending a little bit of time understanding the pedal went a long way for us.
