Full Description
Welsh Cake Overdrive
Lower Mids focused overdrive
The Welsh Cake is a characterful fat overdrive pedal delivering rich, expressive tones. The Mids control offers intuitive shaping—turn counter-clockwise to boost midrange presence, clockwise to reduce it. For optimal results, start with the control fully left or fully right, then fine-tune to your preference.
Key Features
Simple Control Layout Three potentiometers give you full command over your sound:
- Gain: The amount of unboosted gain.
- Level: the output volume of the pedal.
- Mids: The Mids control operates as follows - anti-clockwise increases midrange content, clockwise reduces it. For optimal results, begin at either extreme and adjust incrementally towards the centre to match your amplifier and playing style.
- Rear-mounted jacks — keeps your pedalboard footprint smaller.
- Flush sides — allows pedals to sit right next to each other.
- Standard 9V DC centre-negative power — works with virtually every power supply on the market, right alongside the rest of your pedals. Power adaptor not included.
