Build Joe Bonamassa’s $200 Overdrive for $30 – Same Tone, Huge Savings!

Can you really get Joe Bonamassa’s $200 signature overdrive tone… for just $30?


In this video, I build a faithful DIY clone of the Way Huge Overrated Special – the exact circuit Joe helped design – on veroboard using premium components. No compromises, no tweaks. Just that rich, amp-like tone built into a one-off handmade pedal.
 


You’ll hear it in a full mix, see how it’s built, and find


out how to grab your own custom pedal from hellosailoreffects.com.
