Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.30% — somewhat different

The Catalinbread SFT V2 is the second-generation version of the Ampeg Portaflex-inspired SFT overdrive from Portland, Oregon, with refined circuit improvements over the original SFT for improved dynamic response, better control over the gain character, and expanded tonal versatility. The V2 preserves the essential Ampeg warmth, deep low-end, and natural compression while addressing the original design with enhanced headroom and improved control range. Made in Portland by Catalinbread.
The DOD Boneshaker is a high-gain analog distortion pedal engineered in collaboration with Black Arts Toneworks for DigiTech's DOD brand. Custom-designed circuitry provides a wide gain range from gainy overdriven character at lower settings through heavy sustain and grit at full saturation. A Depth control enhances upper midrange and adds growl, while three-band EQ provides broad tonal shaping. The Boneshaker straddles the territory between a medium-gain overdrive and full distortion, with a raw, aggressive character. Suited for heavy blues, hard rock, and players seeking powerful, flexible gain with studio-grade circuit pedigree.
