One Control Lingonberry Overdrive
One Control · pedal
The One Control Lingonberry Overdrive is a higher-gain development of the Strawberry Red, with more control over lower-gain settings and altered filtering that gives it more bite and a tighter response. That makes it the more aggressive of the pair while remaining a Björn Juhl design in the same series. Anyone choosing between the two is really choosing gain range and filtering rather than two unrelated circuits. It suits rock players who want the Strawberry Red character with more drive available and a firmer low end.
